Samenvatting	Time-series microbiome diversity analysis tracks how the richness, evenness, and community composition of microbial communities change across multiple time points within the same subjects. By combining standard diversity metrics with longitudinal statistical models, it separates true temporal dynamics from inter-individual variation, identifying when and how perturbations such as diet changes, antibiotic treatment, or disease onset reshape the microbiome.	Time-series RNA-seq differential expression analysis identifies genes whose expression levels change systematically across ordered time points — such as during development, disease progression, or response to a treatment. Unlike two-condition DE analysis, it explicitly models the temporal structure of the data, capturing dynamic gene expression trajectories rather than a single snapshot contrast. Tools such as maSigPro, ImpulseDE2, and splineTimeR have been developed specifically for this design.
