Calculates statistical power for high-dimensional genomics experiments (bulk RNA-seq, scRNA-seq, ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, methylation, proteomics) under negative-binomial count models using RNASeqPower, PROPER, and simulation via powsimR, distinguishing per-gene from marginal (transcriptome-wide) power, the role of mean expression and dispersion, and the sequencing-depth-versus-replicate tradeoff. Covers simulation as the honest default for overdispersed counts, FDR-aware average power versus single-test power, observed/post-hoc power as an anti-pattern, and the winner's-curse / Type-S / Type-M consequences of underpowering. Use when planning replicate number for a sequencing experiment, deciding whether to add depth or samples, choosing closed-form versus simulation power, estimating power from pilot dispersions, or justifying replication in a grant. For clinical-trial power see clinical-biostatistics/power-and-sample-size; for the inverse sample-size question see experimental-design/sample-size.

Structures biological experiments so inference is valid by construction, covering Fisher's principles (randomization, replication, local control), the experimental-vs-observational unit distinction and pseudoreplication (Hurlbert 1984; Lazic 2018), randomization mechanics (complete, restricted, stratified, rerandomization, run-order), blocking layouts (randomized complete block, Latin square, incomplete block), factorial designs and interactions, and the split-plot/nested error strata hidden inside multi-batch genomics. Use when deciding the experimental unit and what counts as a replicate, planning randomization and run order, choosing a blocked/factorial/split-plot/nested layout, avoiding pseudoreplication in cell-culture or animal studies, or specifying the random-effects structure of the analysis model.

Estimates the minimum biological replicates (or cells/events) for a target power at a target FDR in genomics experiments using ssizeRNA, PROPER, powsimR for scRNA-seq, and pilot-data dispersion estimation from DESeq2/edgeR.

Use when budgeting a sequencing experiment, writing the sample-size justification in a grant, estimating replicates from pilot data, allocating a fixed budget between samples and depth, or planning scRNA-seq cohort size.

Designs genomics experiments so technical nuisance variation (batch, lane, plate, flow cell, operator, reagent lot, processing day) is balanced against the biological variable of interest and therefore estimable rather than confounded, using constrained sample-to-batch assignment (designit, OSAT), the confounder/mediator/collider distinction, and the principle that no post-hoc correction recovers a fully confounded design. Covers detecting hidden batches with surrogate variable analysis, a decision table for downstream correction (ComBat-seq, RUVSeq, SVA) whose execution is deferred to differential-expression/batch-correction, and reproducibility metadata. Use when assigning samples to sequencing batches/lanes/plates, avoiding batch-condition confounding, deciding whether a design is salvageable by correction, choosing a correction method, or estimating the number of hidden batches.
