Network-based epigenome-wide association study
Network-based EWAS extends conventional epigenome-wide association studies by overlaying differentially methylated positions or regions onto biological interaction networks — such as protein-protein interaction, co-expression, or gene regulatory networks — to identify functionally coherent epigenetic modules rather than isolated CpG hits. This integration increases statistical power for detecting weak signals and reveals coordinated epigenetic dysregulation across pathways.
