A volcano plot is a type of scatter plot commonly used in bioinformatics and various fields of research, particularly in genomics and proteomics, to visualize the results of high-throughput experiments. It is especially useful for displaying the results of differential expression analyses, such as comparing gene or protein expression levels between two conditions (e.g., treated vs. control).
