And going beyond this: my layman's understanding of biology is that the way in which genes are expressed can be highly nonlinear and modulated by all sorts of different pathways. If you have some clarity on how these pathways work, probabilistic programming might be a helpful tool here in a Bayesian context. It's been a number of years since I've looked at these things, but https://www.theactuary.com/2024/04/04/bayesian-revolution https://www.theactuary.com/2024/04/04/bayesian-revolution and https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.14888 https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.14888 are recent articles that may be relevant.
