Data in the life sciences is being obtained at a steadily increasing speed. Modern technology enables observing many of the fundamental building blocks of a cell such as genes and their activity or metabolites and their concentration, as well as many phenotypical parameters on a macroscopic level, such as shape, volume or tissue composition. The sequencing of a large number of genomes-the blueprints of life-enabled so-called post-genomics methods. The suffix '-omics' indicates the generation of data on a large, comprehensive scale. Genomics thus studies all genes and proteomics all proteins in a cell or a tissue. Recent developments have led to a staggering list of these omics technologies. © 2014 Springer International Publishing.
