요약	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.	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.
