<p>Hello R Ladies!!</p> <p>It's time for our third event and this one's special! This event will be led by a guest, Dr. Suthira Owlarn, coming all the way from the MPI for Molecular Biology in Muenster. Suthira will be teaching us how to use R Shiny, a way to build interactive web applications using R.</p> <p>Shiny is a popular framework for building R-powered interactive web apps and dashboards – and a great way to present your data/analyses to the world! Its ease-of-use makes it beginner-friendly, while its flexibility and extendibility allow more advanced programmers to make use of various skills (e.g. javascript, test-writing).</p> <p>Based on the initial R Ladies Nijmegen survey, the current plan for the workshop assumes fundamental R skills, but no previous shiny experience. It’ll be a presentation with short exercises, followed by a longer hands-on session and Q&amp;A.</p> <p>You can find a more general R concepts refresher to make sure you’re ready for the workshop here: <a href="https://github.com/sowla/2019-shiny-intro-workshop-Nijmegen-RLadies" class="linkified">https://github.com/sowla/2019-shiny-intro-workshop-Nijmegen-RLadies</a></p> <p>About the speaker: Suthira Owlarn is a biologist at the Max Planck Institute in Münster. After finishing her PhD, she decided to learn a little R and immediately fell in love! Soon, she waved goodbye to the bench and is now having fun diving into the world of data analysis, exploring R packages and building shiny apps.</p> <p>REQUIREMENTS<br/>Don't forget to bring your (fully charged!) laptop with R Studio installed and with the 'shiny' package.</p> <p>CODE OF CONDUCT<br/>Please take a minute to read our code of conduct -- we are committed to creating a safe and harassment-free environment<br/><a href="https://github.com/rladies/starter-kit/wiki/Code-of-Conduct" class="linkified">https://github.com/rladies/starter-kit/wiki/Code-of-Conduct</a></p> <p>R-Ladies events are always free and open to anyone who wants to participate as long as they follow the code of conduct. We are pro-actively inclusive of queer, trans, and all minority identities, with additional sensitivity to intersectional identities. Our priority is to provide a safe community space for anyone identifying as a minority gender who is interested in and/or working with R.</p> <p>SPONSORS<br/>A huge thank you to the IMPRS for Language Sciences (www.mpi.nl/education) and R consortium for sponsoring this event and to the Gelderland Zuid library for hosting it!</p>
