Σύνοψη	Time-series single-cell RNA-seq analysis captures gene expression across multiple time points at single-cell resolution to reveal how cell populations emerge, transition, and diverge during dynamic biological processes such as development, differentiation, or disease progression. By combining pseudotime ordering, RNA velocity, and differential dynamics testing, researchers reconstruct the temporal trajectory of individual cells and identify the gene regulatory changes that drive biological transitions.	Pathway enrichment analysis (PEA) is a statistical approach that takes a list of genes or proteins of interest — typically derived from a differential expression or proteomics experiment — and identifies which pre-defined biological pathways or functional gene sets are represented more often than expected by chance. By mapping individual molecular changes onto curated pathway knowledge bases such as KEGG, Gene Ontology, or Reactome, PEA translates long gene lists into interpretable biological processes, making it a central tool in the post-analysis of high-throughput omics experiments.
