General Information
This workshop takes a style inspired by the Carpentries Workshop. However, in this workshop we will not use the Carpentries official lesson materials.
Who: The course is aimed at graduate students and other researchers. No previous experience with R is needed, but is also suited for established R-users not familiar with the tidyverse packages.
Requirements: Participants must bring a laptop with a Mac, Linux, or Windows operating system (not a tablet, Chromebook, etc.) that they have administrative privileges on. They should have Zoom and a few specific software packages installed (installation guide provided in acceptance email).
Accessibility: We are committed to making this workshop accessible to everybody. The workshop organizers have checked that:
- The room is wheelchair / scooter accessible.
- Accessible restrooms are available.
Materials will be provided in advance of the workshop and large-print handouts are available if needed by notifying the organizers in advance. If we can help making learning easier for you (e.g. sign-language interpreters, lactation facilities) please get in touch (using contact details below) and we will attempt to provide them.
Contact: Please email to-be-announced for more information.
