Genomics is an interdisciplinary field of science focusing on the structure, function, evolution, mapping, and editing of genomes. A genome is an organism's complete set of DNA, including all of its genes. In contrast to genetics, which refers to the study of individual genes and their roles in inheritance, genomics aims at the collective characterization and quantification of genes, which direct the production of proteins with the assistance of enzymes and messenger molecules.

Medical applications
Recent developments in the technology used to acquire genomic data have opened up new possibilities for medical clinicians and researchers, as information can be gleaned more efficiently than was previously possible. This has led to a deepened understanding of genomics and the role of genes in causing or preventing disease.
Biotechnology applications
There are several applications of genomic knowledge in the field of synthetic biology and bioengineering.
Some scientific research has demonstrated the creation of a partially synthetic species of bacteria. For example, the genome of Mycoplasma genitalium was used to synthesize the bacterium Mycoplasma laboratorium, which has distinct characteristics from the original bacteria.
