Effective Data Visualization in R in Scientific Contexts workshop

Join our workshop on Effective Data Visualization in R in Scientific Contexts, which is a part of our workshops for Ukraine series! 

Here’s some more info: 

Title: Effective Data Visualization in R in Scientific Contexts

Date: Thursday, April 10th, 18:00 – 20:00 CET (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone)

Speaker: Christian Gebhard is a specialist in medical genetics. His daily practice of communicating complex scientific facts to both laypersons and healthcare professionals has fostered a deep passion for clear information presentation and effective data visualization. Striving for both clarity and reproducibility, he primarily utilizes R and ggplot2 to create impactful and accessible visualization of scientific data.

Description: The workshop will start by establishing a structured approach to transforming complex data into clear, informative visual representations. We’ll address common challenges and visualization pitfalls in different presentation formats. This part is applicable across different scientific fields and independent of visualization tools. The second part applies those principles to real-world examples using R and ggplot2. Participants will gain hands-on experience applying the learned principles to improve data communication in various presentation settings.
