Genome is the complete set of genes or gene or genetic material present in a cell or organism. Genomics is the study of genomes and their interaction with the environment. Passed from one generation to another, genes contain the essential instructions for building an organism and determine everything from predisposition to diseases to how some bacteria can survive extreme temperatures. Scientists and entrepreneurs are exploiting genomic information to improve health, increase productivity in agriculture, forestry and fisheries, and help clean up the environment. Although clinical application of genomic data is at a nascent stage, the healthcare and research community are making attempts for effective integration of genetic information into clinical workflows. Genetic tests have been developed for more than 2,200 diseases, including certain types of breast cancer. The rapid advances in genomics over the next few years will undoubtedly build on what has been achieved and have the potential to help to control some of the most intractable diseases of humankind.
The genomics market size is mainly driven by the factors such as the rising government funding, development in the number of genomics projects coupled with the significant changes in disease management processes due to simultaneous advancements in genomics and personalized medicine. Genomics plays an imperative in diagnosis of several genetic disorders. It has an ample scope in personalized medication as it can advocate a medical management developed on the hereditary substance of a person with the assistance of clinical information and AI. Further, declining sequencing costs, increasing application areas of genomics, and the entry of new players and start-ups in the genomics field are driving the growth of the genomics market. However, the high cost of genomic instruments is one of the major restraints of the market.
