Sintesi	Bayesian ChIP-seq peak calling applies probabilistic models — typically Poisson, negative binomial, or hidden Markov models with Bayesian inference — to detect genomic regions enriched for a protein of interest in chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing experiments. By explicitly modelling read-count noise and incorporating prior distributions, Bayesian callers yield posterior probabilities of enrichment rather than simple p-values, providing a principled framework for uncertainty quantification across the genome.	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.
