This review describes briefly proteome science. It explains why proteome science or proteomics emerged only recently and why a shift from genomics to proteomics is occurring. This review further illustrates that proteomics can unravel new domains in nature's complexity. Finally, it demonstrates that proteomics is offering new tools for the study of complex biological or medical problems.
