| Glossary | |
| Epigenomics | The study of chemical changes and modifications to DNA and associated proteins that affect gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. |
| Genomics | The study of an organism’s entire genetic material (genome), including the structure, function, evolution, and mapping of genes. |
| Metabolomics | The study of the complete set of small molecules, or metabolites, within a biological sample. |
| Omics | A collective term for fields of study in biology that focus on large-scale data analysis of molecules, such as genes (genomics), proteins (proteomics), or metabolites (metabolomics), to understand biological systems and processes comprehensively. |
| Personalized medicine | A medical approach that tailors treatment and healthcare decisions to an individual’s unique genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environment, with the goal of providing more effective and targeted therapies. |
| Pharmacogenomics | The study of how an individual’s genetic makeup affects their response to drugs. |
| Precision medicine | A medical model that customizes healthcare by considering individual variability in genes, environment, and lifestyle to develop more accurate and effective treatments and preventive strategies for patients. |
| Proteomics | The large-scale study of the entire set of proteins produced by an organism or cell. |
| Transcriptomics | The study of the complete set of RNA transcripts produced by the genome under specific conditions or in a particular cell type. |
