What is genomics?
The genome is code including information of life. A lined up of 0 and 1 meaningless characters like '010011010' but combination of characters can express all of information. Like this, genome is also lined up of base (‘A’,’T’,’G’,’C’) but combination of base (sequence) has all of information of life.
Genomics is the decoding. As I said before, the code has information, so determines characteristic of life. Therefore, be decoding the code, we can know about the characteristic of life. And conversely, also possible to know which characteristics from expressed which genes. That ‘decoding’ is genomics.
