About this Event
About the Workshop
We will use the RStudio interface and demonstrate how to input data (using an RNA-seq dataset), wrangle data, and explore data using basic visualisation tools. We will work with R packages such as tidyverse and ggplot2, and show how to transition to Bioconductor. For those interested, we will also cover how to generate a reproducible R Markdown report.
Lead Instructors: David Hirst, Eva Wang & Chengyi Ma
What to Bring: Please bring your own laptop.
Please note that the $25 booking fee will be fully refunded upon workshop attendance.
