It provides a learning journey starting with learning about how we can automate processes that can be reproduced to analyse our biological data.\n\nThe course will begin with discussing what opportunit ies and challenges are associated with aspects of bioinformatics analyses. We will address a subset of them in greater detail in the central part of the course and provide time for participants to practise using some of th e associated bioinformatics tools.\n\nFocusing on solutions around handlin g biological data\, we will cover programming in R\, version control\, sta tistical analyses\, and data exploration. The R component of the course wi ll cover from the foundations of programming in R to how to use some of th e most popular R packages (dplyr and ggplot2) for data manipulation and vi sualisation. No prior R experience or previous knowledge of programming is required. At the end of the course we will address issues relating to reu sability and reproducibility.\n\nMore information about the course can be found [here](https://e.issuu.com/anonymous-embed.html?u=bioinfocambs&\; d=bioinformaticsforbiologists_dec2020).\n\nPlease note that if you are not eligible for a University of Cambridge [Raven](http://www.ucs.cam.ac.uk/d ocs/faq/raven/n5) account you will need to book or register your interest by linking [here](http://bioinfotraining.bio.cam.ac.uk/booking-form/?event -id=3353700&\;course-title=Winter%20School%20DEB).''
