Workshop on Basic R for Life Sciences (BRLS - 2020)
We successfully conducted three days workshop with huge success !!
Few selected testimonials...
A total of 23 participants mostly Research scholars and Assistant professors and scientists.
Background of participants were mostly non-programming and Biotechnology. We started from scratch and took them to case study level.
- Day1 we taught them R syntax so that they can get flavor of Rstudio, data import, data structures
- Day2 extensive focus was given on ggplo2 and dplyr package for data manipulation and visualization
- Some statistical concepts were also discussed in these two days.
- On Day3, a case study was given to participants which they solved by themselves based on their learning from Day1 and Day2
The teaching part was the best !! Provided study material was really useful and the workshop was really helpful & needed as we are not from programming background !! Workshop was very well organized !! I liked the most about the workshop Excellent tutorial and write ups. |
- The instructor started the workshop from a basic level, suitable for a broad audience. The basics of R were very well covered. The sessions started from basics & enough personal attention was given to each participants. Study material given in very well compiled. Hands-on session on visualization including ggplot was explained well !! |
Workshop Details
In the post-genomic era, Life science career aspirants must equip themselves with tools and techniques for efficient storage, processing and analysis of big 'Omics’ data. R is one of the widely used software environment and programming language for processing, statistical analysis and visualization of biological data. The knowledge of R will greatly help you to meet everyday challenges posed by your research data and can save a lot of your time and efforts to deal with it. Attending Basic R for Life Sciences workshop will enable you to learn basic concepts of R along with hands-on experience on solving biological data analysis problems. Trained by experienced research professionals from various life science domains, you will be introduced with its applicability to real-time problems.
