About

R Programming for Biologists: Beginners Level is a comprehensive 3-day workshop tailored for biologists looking to acquire essential programming skills. The workshop covers the basics of R programming, focusing on its application in biological data analysis. Participants will learn to manipulate, analyze, and visualize data using R, equipping them with the tools to handle complex datasets commonly encountered in biological research.

The workshop includes hands-on exercises, real-world examples, and interactive sessions to ensure a practical understanding of R programming. Participants will start with the basics of R syntax, progressing to data wrangling, statistical analysis, and data visualization techniques. By the end of the course, attendees will be proficient in using R for their research projects, making them more competitive in the scientific community.

Aim

The aim of the workshop is to empower biologists with essential skills in R programming, fostering a comprehensive understanding of its applications in biological research. This workshop aims to demystify the complexities of R, providing participants, from beginners to intermediate users, with a solid foundation in utilizing R for data analysis in the biological sciences. Through a combination of theoretical knowledge and hands-on practical sessions, attendees will gain proficiency in data manipulation, statistical analysis, and visualization, enabling them to harness the full potential of R as a powerful tool for extracting meaningful insights from biological datasets. By the end of the workshop, participants will be equipped with the confidence and skills necessary to integrate R seamlessly into their research workflows, ultimately enhancing the efficiency and depth of their biological analyses.
