Functional Genomics
A field of genomics that utilizes the data from transcriptomic and genomic projects in order to study the more dynamic aspects of the genetic processes. This includes processes such as transcription, translation, and other epigenetic paths, while not focusing on the more static aspects such as secondary structure or sequences.
