Interferomics is a the study of biological events that take place post-transcriptomic pre-translatomically. It defines one of many levels in an emerging field of Life sciences known as Systems Biology

Systems biology

Systems biology is a term used to describe a number of trends in bioscience research, and a movement which draws on those trends. Proponents describe systems biology as a biology-based inter-disciplinary study field that focuses on complex interactions in biological systems, claiming that it uses...

RNA Interference

RNA interference

RNA interference is a process within living cells that moderates the activity of their genes. Historically, it was known by other names, including co-suppression, post transcriptional gene silencing , and quelling. Only after these apparently unrelated processes were fully understood did it become...

 is one such cellular mechanism that falls in this category and is to-date the only known inteferomic phenomenon. Drs Andrew Z. Fire and Craig C. Mello were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in the year of 2006 for their collective discovery of RNA interference
