Samenvatting	Bayesian variant calling is a computational pipeline that uses probabilistic inference to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, and deletions in a genome by treating sequencing data as evidence and computing posterior probabilities over candidate genotypes. Unlike deterministic threshold-based callers, Bayesian approaches explicitly model sequencing error, mapping uncertainty, and prior genotype frequencies to produce calibrated genotype likelihoods that can be used for downstream filtering and association testing.	Sequence alignment is a foundational bioinformatics technique that arranges two or more DNA, RNA, or protein sequences to reveal regions of similarity, infer evolutionary relationships, identify functional domains, and map sequencing reads to reference genomes. It underpins virtually every downstream genomic analysis, from variant calling and gene expression quantification to phylogenetics and structural annotation.
