Cytomics
Cytomics is the study of
microscopic techniques that allow the various components of a cell to be visualised as they interact in vivo
.
Cytome
Cytomes
are the cellular systems, subsystems, and functional components of the
body. The cytome is the collection of the complex and dynamic cellular processes (structure and function) underlying physiological processes. It describes the structural and functional heterogeneity of the cellular diversity of an organism
.
Human Cytome Project
The
Human Cytome Project is aimed at the study of the biological system structure and function of an organism at the cytome level.[4]
