R for Reproducible Scientific Analysis #78

Closed smcclatchy closed 5 years ago

smcclatchy commented 6 years ago

The goal of this workshop is to teach novice programmers to write modular code and best practices for using R for data analysis. R is commonly used in many scientific disciplines for statistical analysis. The emphasis of these materials is to give participants a strong foundation in the fundamentals of R, and to teach best practices for scientific computing: breaking down analyses into modular units, task automation, and encapsulation. Note that this workshop will focus on teaching the fundamentals of the programming language R, and will not teach statistical analysis.

Please visit the workshop website for more information. You can preview the lesson to learn more about content. Please install R and RStudio on your laptop prior to arrival.

We'll meet at the UCHC Center for Quantitative Medicine, 195 Farmington Ave, Farmington CT from 9am to 4:30pm on Monday and Tuesday, Oct 15-16.
