In case of functional genomics– Two general types of approaches are used—one in which a genetic construct is made that interferes with the expression of a particular gene (and sometimes a set of related genes) and a second in which a large number of random mutations are generated in a population of organisms.

Genome analysis is the process of identifying, measuring, or comparing genomic features. This includes DNA sequence, gene expression, structural variation, and regulatory and functional element annotation.

Topics include: Functional Classification of Genes, Global Gene Regulation, & Prediction of Gene Function Based on a Composite Analysis.
