Topics: The course consists of online lectures (slides with audio) and
online classes. In the lectures both the theoretical background as well
as basic knowledge for completing the exercises will be taught.
Participants work on exercise sheets handed out every day. Exercises will be presented and discussed in online
classes every 2-3 days.
The topics consist of: Basics in programming in R; Tools for
biological data analyses; Data visualization; Statistical analysis;
Exploratory data analysis; Special topic: Single cell data
Goals: More and more data is being generated in all branches of the life sciences. To take full advantage of these, basic knowledge in programming is an essential skill for future generations of scientists. After successfully completing the course, participants will have the necessary theoretical background as well as practical experience to start analyzing their own data.
