Samenvatting	Bayesian gene set enrichment analysis (Bayesian GSEA) applies a probabilistic framework to determine whether predefined sets of genes — representing biological pathways, cellular processes, or functional categories — are collectively more differentially expressed than expected by chance. Unlike classical frequentist GSEA, the Bayesian approach models uncertainty in expression estimates explicitly, incorporates prior biological knowledge, and produces posterior probabilities of enrichment rather than raw p-values, enabling more principled inference especially in small-sample settings.	Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) is a computational method that determines whether a predefined set of genes — representing a biological pathway, process, or function — shows statistically significant, coordinated differences between two biological conditions. Unlike simple fold-change filtering, GSEA operates on all measured genes ranked by a correlation metric, detecting subtle but consistent shifts across an entire pathway even when no single gene passes a significance threshold.
