🧠💻 12 brilliant and motivated doctoral researchers joined the Fundamentals of Programming for Research course, where they kicked off their journey into R programming, one of the most powerful tools for analysing biological data.

I had the pleasure of delivering the first training event of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network #MiCCrobioTAckle, at Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology–Hans Knöll Institute in beautiful Jena, Germany
