A computer monitor is centered on a blue background, displaying a virtual event announcement. The screen shows a scenic autumn road leading to a prominent university building with a tower. Overlaid on this background are three large, semi-transparent oval text bubbles. The top bubble reads "useR! 2025," the middle one says "Virtual Event," and the bottom one states "August 1, 2025." In the bottom left corner of the overall image is the "useR! 2025" logo, featuring a stylized "R" and a bull.

The main section on the left details information about the conference: "8 - 10 August 2025," "Penn Pavilion, Duke University," "Durham, North Carolina," and "Hosted by Duke University and Duke Center for Computational Thinking." Below this, there's a notice about ticket sales: "Normal ticket sales will be ending July 15th. Get yours before the price increase!" A table compares "Regular" and "Late & Onsite" prices for "Student," "Academia," and "Industry" tickets.

Honestly I almost did it again a moment ago lol.

A slide for a keynote presentation features a smiling man with a beard and short hair, wearing a shirt with a polka-dot bow tie, in a circular portrait at the top. The word "KEYNOTE" is in the upper left, and the "useR! 2025" logo is in the upper right. Below the portrait, the name "Hadley Wickham" is displayed, followed by "Posit PBC." A gray banner below his name reads, "I wrote this talk with an LLM." The bottom half of the slide contains the abstract for his talk, detailing an exploration of the relationship between data scientists and large language models, specifically how AI assistance can augment the R user's workflow. It notes that the abstract was generated by Claude Sonnet 3.7 and lightly edited.

Hadley Wickham (@hadley.nz) is a developer and teacher whose impact on the R ecosystem is immense. He is Chief scientist at @posit.co where he leads the Tidyverse team. His keynote "I wrote this talk with an LLM" explores how AI can help rather than replace data scientists.

A smiling woman with curly brown hair and glasses is featured in a circular portrait at the top of a presentation slide. She is wearing a gray blazer with a red necklace. Above her portrait, to the left, is the word "KEYNOTE" in large blue letters, and to the right is the "useR! 2025" logo. Below her image, her name "Frauke Kreuter" is written, followed by "LMU Munich / University of Maryland." A gray banner beneath her name reads, "Data in the Balance: Incentives, Independence, and Public Statistics." The bottom half of the slide contains a block of text detailing the content of the keynote address, which focuses on challenges in government statistics and the importance of data investment and statistical infrastructure.

Why does "good" data still lack agreed-upon metrics? Frauke Kreuter will tackle this and other critical challenges facing statistical systems in her keynote talk for useR! 2025. Join us to explore how we can strengthen our data infrastructure.

The image captures a vibrant poster session at the useR! R Conference, held in Salzburg in July 2024. The setting is a spacious conference hall with attendees engaging in discussions around research posters mounted on large display boards. Participants, a mix of data scientists, researchers, and R enthusiasts, are seen standing in small groups, gesturing towards the posters, and exchanging insights. Some individuals are holding conference materials or notebooks, while others are listening attentively to presenters explaining their work. The posters feature graphs, charts, and R code snippets, reflecting cutting-edge developments in R programming for statistical analysis and data science. The atmosphere is collaborative and professional, with attendees dressed in business casual attire. In the background, additional posters and conference branding related to R programming and statistical computing reinforce the theme of the event. The lighting in the room is bright, enhancing visibility and interaction.
