Sintesi	Bayesian eQTL analysis identifies genetic variants (eQTLs) that regulate gene expression by combining genotype and RNA-seq data within a probabilistic framework. Unlike frequentist approaches that rely on p-value thresholds, the Bayesian formulation produces posterior probabilities of association, enabling principled fine-mapping of causal variants and coherent uncertainty quantification across thousands of gene-SNP pairs simultaneously.	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.
