FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0005] The present invention generally rdates to libraries, compositions, methods, applications, kits and screens used in functional genomics that focus on gene function in a cell and that may use vector systems and other aspects related to Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindramic Repeats (CRISPR)-Cas systems and components hereof. STATEMENT AS TO FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH [0006] This invention was made with government support under the NIH Pioneer Award (1DP1MH100706) awarded by the National Institutes of Health. The government has certain rights in the invention. 2 wo 2014/204727 PCT/US2O14/O418O6 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0007] Recent advances in genome sequencing techniques and analysis methods have significantly accelerated the ability to catalog and map genetic foctors associated with a diverse range or biological fonctions and diseases. Functional genomics is a field of molecular biology that may be considered to utilize the vast wealth of data produced by genomic projects (such as genome sequencing projects) to describe gene (and protein) fonctions and interactions. Cont ary to dassical genomics, functional genomics focuses on the dynamic aspects such as gene t anscription, translation, and protein-protein interactions, as opposed to the static aspects of the genomic information such as DNA sequence or structures, though these static aspects are very important and supplement one's understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms. Functional genomics attempts to answer questions about the function of DNA at the levels of genes, RNA transcripts, and protein products. A key characteristic of functional genomics studies is a genome-wide approach to these questions, generally involving high-throughput methods rather than a more t aditional "gene-by-gene" approach.
