The workshop offers an introduction to the software "R". Increasingly, physicians and biologists are facing large amounts of data that can no longer be analysed "by hand”. The R environment offers free software facilities for data manipulation, calculation and graphical display. It thus allows handling of large data amounts, simplifies the interpretation of the data, or enables a deeper analysis.
Mon, May 6, 10am–4pm
Programming basics, including syntax, data types, using R studio, importing and exporting data, and data wrangling techniques.
Tue, May 7, 9am–4pm
Data analysis techniques in R, including correlation analysis, statistical tests, and creating visually appealing graphs using ggplot2.
Wed, May 8, 9am–1pm
Apply the concepts learned in the previous days to real-world sequencing and SNP data analysis, including creating heatmaps.
If there is enough interest one can add a session to discuss one's own research/project and how to use R for it.
Learning goals
The goal of this seminar is to provide participants with little or no prior knowledge of working with R data the opportunity to fill in any knowledge gaps they may have and determine whether R can be used in their own research. The topic ranges from basic knowledge to get started to more advanced examples, where you see in real-world research examples how to use R.
