• Data Carpentries (Feb 18-21, 12-4 PM)
  18 February 2025, 12:00 PM, MadLab (Room B112) at Gerstein Science Information Centre Library
  

  In this four-day workshop series, learners will learn almost all of the tools that they may need for their personal research projects. Starting with computing and programming basics in R, and moving into advanced topics of writing functions, data analyses and visualizations, learners will finish this series with the confidence and computational power to quickly apply skills learned to complete their own research. Please see the event website for all of the topics that will be covered.

• Interactive Plots with Shiny
  5 March 2025, 05:30 PM, CDRS (Collaborative Digital Research Space, MN 3230) at Maanjiwe Nendamowinan building
  

  Shiny is an R package that makes it easy to straightly build interactive web apps from R. This workshop will introduce how to build interactive plots to visualize.
