Time: 9:00 - 17:00
Format: Online
Registration: CaMS
“Introduction to R” provides a foundation for coding with the statistical programming language R. The course is designed for applied researchers with no previous programming skills. In this course you will learn the basics of coding in R. In particular, you will learn how to read and manipulate datasets. These skills are necessary for performing any subsequent statistical analyses in R.
Prerequisites: None
Date: 25, 26 June & 02, 03 July 2024
Time: 9:00 - 17:00
Format: Online
Registration: CaMS
“Introduction to Statistics” is a foundational course in statistical analysis for scientists and practitioners. This course covers descriptive statistics, classical statistical tests (t-test, Wilcoxon/Mann-Whitney-U test, ANOVA, etc), and linear regression and its extensions. All methods are explained in an applied setting. By the end of the course, you will be able to identify appropriate statistical methods, apply them, and interpret your results.
Prerequisites: Basic skills in programming with R, e.g. course “Introduction to R”
Date: 27, 28 June & 04 July 2024
Time: 09:00 - 17:00
Format: Campus Neuherberg
Registration: CaMS
“Introduction to Python” provides a foundation for coding with the programming language Python. The course is designed for applied researchers with no or low previous programming skills in Python. In this course you will learn the basics of coding in Python. In particular, you will learn how to read and manipulate datasets, do basic calculations and plots. These skills are necessary for performing any subsequent course applying Python like Scanpy.
Prerequisites: Basic knowledge in Programming and Statistics is recommended, but not mandatory.
Date: 05 July
Time: 09:00 - 13:00
Format: Online
Registration: CaMS
“Reproducible and Open Research” provides a broad overview on different aspects of open research and reproducibility. This includes the fields of technical, statistical and computational reproducibility. With a focus on the latter two aspects. The course consists of lessons on different aspects of open and reproducible research and offers the opportunity to discuss about experiences and expectations on this topic. Various other features of Open Science will also be discussed. Furthermore, some hand-on examples for how to implement these methods in your daily work are provided.
Prerequisites: None. However, basic knowledge in statistics and programming is advantageous.
The plan for 2024 is available HERE. Registration opens at least 8 weeks prior to the course, please check CaMS for details. Please consider that dates might change slightly throughout the year.
