Join our workshop on Academic and Personal Website Creation: A Quarto Tutorial, which is a part of our workshops for Ukraine series! 

Here’s some more info: 

Title: Academic and Personal Website Creation: A Quarto Tutorial

Date: Thursday, July 18th, 18:00 – 20:00 CEST (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone) 

Speaker: Brier Gallihugh is an incoming fifth year doctoral candidate in social psychology at Ohio University. Broadly speaking, research interests involve prejudice and discrimination of minoritized groups. An advocate for all things open science and statistical, Brier spends countless time inside of RStudio and using R for statistical analyses and document/manuscript generation. Post PhD (likely Spring 2025), Brier hopes to gain employment as either a data analyst or data scientist.

Description: In the digital world having an online presence is at worst a strong suggestion and at best a firm requirement for anyone who wishes to advertise what they do. This is true both in academic circles (i.e., lab websites) and industry circles (i.e., portfolios) alike. However, creating websites can often require a vast knowledge in CSS and HTML coding in order to put together a professional product. Thankfully this is where Quarto comes in handy. This workshop will show participants how to get going quickly on creating and hosting a website for professional or personal use tailored to each participants individual needs using Quarto. Participants will need to have the latest versions of both R and RStudio installed prior to the workshop. Further, a GitHub and Netlify account (used to host the website) is also advised.


Minimal registration fee: 20 euro (or 20 USD or 800 UAH)


How can I register?

  • Fill in the registration form, attaching a screenshot of a donation receipt (please attach the screenshot of the donation receipt that was emailed to you rather than the page you see after donation).

If you are not personally interested in attending, you can also contribute by sponsoring a participation of a student, who will then be able to participate for free. If you choose to sponsor a student, all proceeds will also go directly to organisations working in Ukraine. You can either sponsor a particular student or you can leave it up to us so that we can allocate the sponsored place to students who have signed up for the waiting list.
