Sintesi	Differential single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) analysis is a computational pipeline that compares transcriptomic profiles across biological conditions — such as treated versus untreated, disease versus healthy, or time points — at single-cell resolution. It identifies which genes, cell types, and cell states change between conditions, providing mechanistic insight that bulk RNA-seq comparisons cannot offer. The approach combines clustering, cell-type annotation, and statistical testing, typically using pseudobulk aggregation to account for within-sample correlation.	Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis characterises gene expression at the resolution of individual cells, enabling discovery of cell types, states, and transitions that are invisible in bulk transcriptomics. Starting from raw sequencing reads, the workflow produces a cell-by-gene count matrix and proceeds through quality control, normalisation, dimensionality reduction, unsupervised clustering, cell-type annotation, and a range of downstream analyses such as trajectory inference and differential expression between cell populations.
