Gene Set Testing
... The standard question in gene set testing is: “It there an association between the expression of the genes in the given gene set and the studied condition?” This may mean: “Are unusually many (or: unusually few) of the genes in S differentially expressed?” To make the meaning of “unusually many” mor ...
