Talk:Interferomics
==Meaning?==InterferomicsWh I failed to understand biological events that take place post-transcriptomic pre-translatomically and the only Google Books reference to Interferomics that I can find, Molecular genetic testing in surgical pathology by John D. Pfeifer, defines it as "Global analysis of the pattern of expression of small RNA molecules responsible for RNA interference". Is this the same thing? Groomtech (talk) 22:37, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
- I am not an expert on the subject and there were issues with the original author that I had to correct. This article could do with an expert hand or two or it may simply be deserving of an entry in wiktionery.--Matt (talk) 05:50, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

- Another look at this article, given that the second para is mostly irrelevant it could easily be merged into Systems biology entry. I started watching this a year ago when it was created and had issues with it then, I left it alone because of a lack of knowledge, I feel it is like the tine on a fork, a fork is deserving of an article, but the second tine is not. --Matt (talk) 01:01, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Why coin a new word? Why accept a new word?
[edit]If there is only one known "inteferomic phenomenon" to-date (i.e. what happens between the transciption and the translation), then why not call it the 'study of RNA interference'? The mentioning of the Nobel Prize seems to me as a justification for the article, but that wasn't given for yet another unnecessary word. You know, there is genomics because there is a genome, and proteomics is stemming from the proteome, but is there an inferferome? (Are they the pre-microRNAs and such?!) --91.120.146.76 (talk) 00:28, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
