*“Paleogenomics and Geobiology”*
/*Abstract:*/
Paleogenomics has a variety of research agendas, and one of them is to 
understand the genes involved in key changes in the evolutionary history 
of life and when those genes and their interactions first evolved. 
  Geobiology is centred on interactions of the biosphere with the 
atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere.  In deep time geobiology has 
focused on critical intervals of change for Earth and its biota.  Such 
geobiological studies include data from paleobiology, geochemistry and 
sedimentary geology within an interdisciplinary framework.  The 
combination of geobiology and paleogenomic studies is a powerful 
approach which leads to a more fundamental understanding of how Earth 
and life have changed through time.  Such work will ultimately provide a 
history of genomic change and the environmental factors that influenced 
it, as well as how genomic changed influenced environments.
