I'm curious about the rationale behind using Z scores for creating heatmaps. Why is this statistical measure preferred for such visualizations, and what advantages does it offer over other methods?

Another popular visualization tool is the volcano plot, which plots the significance (usually -log10 p-value) against the magnitude of change (usually log2 fold change).
