Bioinformatics workshop for R for beginners

The department of “Computational Biology for Infection Research” at the HZI is pleased to announce the next bioinformatics workshop: “Introduction to R - NFDI4Microbiota and DZIF Training Course 2025”. This workshop will take place on June 23-25, 2025 and will be held online. The workshop’s language is English. 

The goal of the course is to give participants with little or no experience of working with R the opportunity to close their knowledge gaps and determine whether R can be used in their own research. Topics range from the basics for getting started to advanced examples of using R in practical research.  

Prerequisites:

This course is suitable for people who are not familiar with R.
