Résumé	Metabolomics analysis is the large-scale, systematic measurement of small-molecule metabolites in a biological sample to characterise the metabolome — the complete set of metabolic intermediates and products present under defined conditions. By coupling high-throughput analytical platforms such as mass spectrometry (MS) or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with multivariate statistics and pathway databases, metabolomics bridges the genotype–phenotype gap and captures the downstream functional output of genes, transcripts, and proteins in real time.	RNA-seq differential expression (DE) analysis identifies genes whose transcript abundance differs significantly between two or more biological conditions — for example, treated versus control, or diseased versus healthy tissue. Starting from raw sequencing reads, the pipeline moves through alignment, count-based normalization, statistical modeling of count dispersion, hypothesis testing, and multiple-testing correction to produce a ranked list of differentially expressed genes accompanied by fold-change estimates and adjusted p-values.
