After the success of our previous workshop series, we’re back with more free online skill-building webinars for early-career researchers in the field of zoology. For the theme of this workshop series, we’re buckling down on data visualization – an essential skill for any academic researcher! We have an outstanding line-up of data-viz experts who can’t wait to teach you the ins and outs of data visualization.

Session 2: Data visualization in R (Beginner)      Limited to 40 places

For our second workshop, we will apply the theoretical knowledge acquired in session 1 and put it into practice. To do this, we’re joined by ggplot-wizard Cédric Scherer – an authority on data visualization in R. For this beginner session, Cédric will introduce us to the secrets of the ggplot universe, sharing with us his favorite tips and tricks to produce beautiful plots in R.

This session will be a practical tutorial with live coding, and an RMarkdown document containing the workshop’s code will be provided to follow along more easily. To maximize the time we have to learn the basics of ggplot, we require participants to have some fundamental knowledge of coding in R, including data input and some rudimentary plotting knowledge.
