+##### AGGREGATION #####
+# score_formula is used to calculate a score for each gene and comparison (group) that can be used downstream e.g., for preranked GSEA
+# eval based score calculation -> eval(parse(text=" "))
+# DEA result dataframe is called: dea_results
+# available numerical columns: p_val, avg_log2FC, pct.1, pct.2, p_val_adj
+# common/popular example: "-log10(dea_results$p_val)*sign(dea_results$logFC)"
+# if not used leave empty: ""
+score_formula: "-log10(dea_results$p_val)*sign(dea_results$avg_log2FC)"
+
+# filters are applied to the DEA results and used for all outputs
