สรุป	Network-based RNA-seq differential expression analysis integrates conventional differential expression testing with gene interaction networks — such as protein-protein interaction graphs or weighted co-expression networks — to identify not just individual differentially expressed genes but coherent, biologically meaningful gene modules that change together between conditions. This approach substantially reduces false positives and surfaces pathway-level signals invisible to gene-by-gene testing.	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.
