BIOS2 is holding a one-day workshop on programming and version control for data science and research. Our newly Certified Carpentries Instructors Francis Banville and Gabriel Dansereau will be giving an introduction to the Tidyverse, a collection of R packages for data manipulation and visualisation. They will also introduce Git, a collaboration and version control tool useful for research work. The lessons covered will be inspired by those developed by The Carpentries (Data Analysis and Visualization in R for Ecologists and Version Control with Git).
The workshop is free and will take place in person at the Campus MIL of University of Montreal (with snacks!) and the language of instruction will be French. We have a very limited number of places, so register early!
You must have R and RStudio and Git Bash installed before the workshop. If you need help with installation, please email Francis or Gabriel, or arrive 60-30 minutes before the workshop starts.
