SUMMARY:Raukr 2025 - Summer School - R beyond the basics
DESCRIPTION:Course description\n\n\n\nJoin us this June in the beautiful and historic town of Visby and sharpen your R skills with like-minded enthusiasts! As the use of R continues to flourish within the realms of Life Science and Bioinformatics – revolutionizing data transformation\, statistical analysis\, and the creation of visuals ready for publication – we are thrilled to offer a workshop dedicated to elevating your expertise with R. \n\n\n\nWe are excited to announce our invited guest instructors for this year: Jennifer Bryan (Posit)\, Christophe Dervieux (Posit) and Henrik Bengtsson (UCSF). \n\n\n\nPlease consider joining us for this enriching experience. For more details and to apply\, visit our homepage. We’d also greatly appreciate you sharing this opportunity with others who might be interested. \n\n\n\nCourse content\n\n\n\nWe will be covering a number of topics in R programming with focus on R features helpful in bioinformatics and computational biology data analyses workflow: \n\n\n\n\nReproducible research in R (Quarto\, Rmarkdown\, Renv)\n\n\n\nCollaborative work using Git and GitHub\n\n\n\nR code style guide & best practices\n\n\n\nCode debugging\, optimization and profiling\n\n\n\nParallelization and vectorization in R\n\n\n\nCrafting your own functions\n\n\n\nObject oriented programming and R classes: S3\, S4\, R6 and RC\n\n\n\nAnatomy of an R package: Creating your own package from scratch\n\n\n\nTidy data flow using tidyverse\n\n\n\nUsing the language of graphics: ggplot2\n\n\n\nDeveloping web applications using Shiny\n\n\n\nR and Python integration using reticulate\n\n\n\nTeam project work – developing data analyses workflow in R using acquired skills\n\n\n\n\nLearning outcomes\n\n\n\nUpon completion of this course\, you will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nWork collaboratively and reproducibly in R\n\n\n\nOptimize R code\n\n\n\nUnderstand R code to a greater extent\n\n\n\nCreate better visualizations\n\n\n\nAnd more!\n\n\n\n\nEntry requirements\n\n\n\nThe course is aimed at both Ph.D. students and researchers within Life Sciences who are already using R for basic bioinformatics analyses and who would like to start using R at a more advanced level. In order for you and other participants to benefit the most\, you should consider yourself eligible if you are comfortable with reading and transforming data\, installing and using third-party packages and plotting using standard R graphics. \n\n\n\nWe offer places for participants from all over the world\, but there are a number of places reserved for participants from Sweden. Due to limited space the course can accommodate approximately 45 participants. If we receive more applications\, participants will be selected based on selection criteria\, including (but not limited to) correct entry requirements\, motivation to attend the course\, as well as gender and geographical balance. \n\n\n\nBy participating in this workshop\, you agree to the NBIS Code of conduct: https://uppsala.instructure.com/courses/105973/pages/code-of-conduct \n\n\n\nCourse fee\n\n\n\nThis on-site training event costs 9500 SEK for academic participants and 19 000 SEK for non-academic participants\, invoiced to the participant’s organization. If you accept a position and do not participate (no-show) you will still be invoiced at the standard fee. Please note that NBIS cannot invoice individuals. \n\n\n\nThe fee includes: \n\n\n\n\nParticipation in lectures and workshops\n\n\n\nMingle reception with snacks and drinks\n\n\n\nDaily breakfast/coffee\, lunch and afternoon coffee during the workshop\n\n\n\nOne official course dinner\n\n\n\nSurprise social activities\n\n\n\n\nNOT included in the fee: \n\n\n\n\nAccommodation\n\n\n\nTravel to and from Visby\n\n\n\nDaily dinners\n\n\n\n\nImportant information\n\n\n\nApplication opens: 13 Jan 2025 \n\n\n\nApplication closes: 06 Apr 2025 \n\n\n\nConfirmation to accepted participants: Rolling acceptance. \n\n\n\nResponsible teachers: Marcin Kierczak\, Sebastian DiLorenzo\, Roy Francis \n\n\n\nContact information: raukr@nbis.se \n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse website
