摘要	Time-series gene set enrichment analysis (TS-GSEA) extends the classical GSEA framework to detect biologically coordinated gene sets — pathways, gene ontology terms, or curated signatures — whose collective expression changes meaningfully over time. Rather than comparing two snapshots, it models the full temporal trajectory of gene expression to identify which functional programs are activated, suppressed, or dynamically remodelled during a biological process such as development, treatment response, or disease progression.	Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis characterises gene expression at the resolution of individual cells, enabling discovery of cell types, states, and transitions that are invisible in bulk transcriptomics. Starting from raw sequencing reads, the workflow produces a cell-by-gene count matrix and proceeds through quality control, normalisation, dimensionality reduction, unsupervised clustering, cell-type annotation, and a range of downstream analyses such as trajectory inference and differential expression between cell populations.
