Experimental Design and Data Management
Volledige vakbeschrijving
When publishing in a scientific journal, you often have the choice to make your findings available freely, openly accessible for the entire world. Additionally, a standard requirement is that all of the source data underlying your findings are openly shared using the FAIR ('Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable') data principles. In Systems Biology research, these datasets are generally huge. Hence, next to proper experimental design, data management has become of utmost importance in Systems Biology research. This course covers all aspects of study design and data management, including scientific data analysis and the FAIR data principles. Additionally, you will learn how to perform basic as well as advanced data analyses in the scientific programming language R. The R skills trainings within the course are supported by DataCamp. DataCamp offers interactive, online courses in R and Python for data scientists and students. For more information, please visit: https://www.datacamp.com/Doelstellingen van dit vak
