Ringkasan	Network-based GWAS integrates conventional genome-wide association study results with biological network data — such as protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks or gene co-expression graphs — to identify disease-relevant gene modules or subnetworks. Instead of reporting only the top individual SNPs, this approach propagates association signals through molecular interaction networks, surfacing gene clusters whose collective signal implicates them in complex-trait biology even when no single variant reaches genome-wide significance alone.	Network-based eQTL analysis extends classical eQTL mapping by embedding genetic variant-to-expression associations within gene regulatory or protein interaction networks. Rather than treating each SNP-gene pair independently, this approach leverages network topology — such as co-expression modules or known pathway structures — to improve statistical power, reduce multiple testing burden, and reveal how genetic variants perturb entire regulatory programs rather than isolated transcripts.
