Description
Summary:'Genomics,' the term first proposed in 1986, is the discipline of understanding genomes powered by an unprecedented accumulation of information on genetic sequences of a wide archive of life forms, foremost of which is the genome of man. After more than two decades of international effort in decoding life's alphabet and culminating with the first working draft of the human DNA this year, the 'postgenomic' era aims to annotate the existing genetic data, elucidate gene functions and find revolutionary applications in almost all branches of life and physical sciences, leaving no bough untouched, not even nuclear science,
