<p>&nbsp;<b>GENOMICS</b></p>
<ol>
<li>Define genomics your own way after doing research on what genomes are and how we study. Genomics is understanding of genome supported with sequencing in terms of the relationship between organism and surrounding environments. Genomics should be not only defining genetic sequence but provide the comprehension of interaction between genome and phenomena. For example, there is a TRIA project(i.e. Turning Risk Into Action for the mountain pine beetle epidemic) in Canada which investigates correlation between pine beetle, fungus, and pine tree in genome level to protect pine tree forest in western Canada.[6].</li> <li>What is the origin of genomics? genomics is first used by Dr. Thomas H. Roderick while discussion of starting new journal - which is now known as <i>Genomics</i>.[7].</li> <li>History and the future of genomics? Genomics largely depends on sequencing technology. Early sequencing takes advantages of electrophoresis with chain-termination method invented by Frederick Sanger. Nowadays, it is supplemented by &quot;NGS&quot; - next generation sequencing which is automated, and high-throughput method. There is a very descriptive movie about NGS sequencing[8]. In the future, genomics might provide better sequencing method in terms of processivity, cost, and fidelity.&nbsp;</li>
