In the context of biology and machine learning, a "perturbation" typically refers to an experimental intervention—such as a genetic knockout or chemical treatment—that alters a cell's state to study its response.

Several recent papers and frameworks focus on predicting these responses using machine learning: Key Research Papers (2024–2026) In the context of biology and machine learning,
