The main aims of the variety of – omics disciplines.

– omics	The aim of study
Genomics	Study of the set of all genes in an organism, in a broader context non-coding parts of DNA are subject of study
Epigenomics	Study of all epigenomic modifications on the genetic material within a cell
Transcriptomics	Study of the expression level of all RNAs in particular cell, or cell population
Proteomics	Study of all possible interactions that a protein can present, complete set of proteins expressed by a genome in a given cell type or organism, under defined conditions, at a given time
Metalobomics	Study of the whole set of the metabolites (small-molecule compounds) within a cell, an organelle, a tissue, an organ or an organism
Interactomics	Study of the entire set of interactions (both: physical and indirect interactions) between and among proteins and other molecules within a particular cell and consequences of those interactions. These interactions are displayed as graphs and called biological networks
Pharmacogenomics	Study which combines pharmacology and genomics in order to analyse the role of the genome in individual’s drug response
Diseasomics	Study of all diseases and disorders of an organism, often focusing on those diseases and disorders caused by genetic modifications
