Підсумок	Multi-omics eQTL analysis maps genetic variants (SNPs or structural variants) to molecular phenotypes simultaneously across multiple omics layers — transcriptome, epigenome, proteome, and metabolome — in the same cohort. By linking genotype to gene expression and then tracing those effects through downstream molecular layers, the approach reveals how genetic variation propagates through the molecular machinery of a cell, yielding mechanistic insight that no single-omics eQTL study can provide.	Single-cell eQTL analysis identifies genetic variants (eQTLs) that regulate gene expression in a cell-type-specific manner by jointly analysing single-cell RNA-seq profiles and donor genotype data. Unlike bulk eQTL methods, it resolves regulatory effects that are diluted or masked when cell types are mixed, enabling discovery of variants whose effects are confined to particular cell states or developmental stages.
