Sintesi	Network-based microbiome diversity analysis integrates graph-theoretic co-occurrence network inference with classical alpha- and beta-diversity metrics to characterize the structural organization of microbial communities. Rather than treating taxa as independent entities, the method models pairwise microbial associations as edges in a network, enabling identification of keystone taxa, community modules, and ecological interaction patterns that simple diversity indices cannot detect.	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.
