Introduction

Omics studies involve the analysis of large datasets in fields such as genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and other emerging areas, which are increasingly prominent in modern research in life sciences. The availability of extensive data spanning the breadth of biological domains, coupled with the advanced analytical tools, has opened avenues for unearthing fresh perspectives on the molecular intricacies that underlie biological phenomena.

This collection aims to introduce fundamental principles and relevant resources from EMBL-EBI to facilitate the exploration of functional genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and spatial omics datasets. Furthermore, it will elucidate some of the methods and tools suitable for the analysis and integration of omics data.
