Writing Reproducible Manuscripts in R and Python / @ Active Learning Space Androclus O.004 In-Person

Open Science practices are becoming central to the way research is conducted. In this workshop, you will learn to set up a reproducible workflow to create a publication-ready manuscript that combines data, R or Python code, text, and references.

You will use the Quarto publishing system in conjunction with R or Python - you can use the programming language you prefer. More specifically, you will learn how to:

Create a reproducible project (folder) structure
Use Markdown syntax effectively for writing text
Run analyses in code chunks or cells
Manage references using Zotero and Better BibTex for Zotero
‘Render’ your Quarto project to Word, HTML, and pdf files

Prerequisites

We recommend basic knowledge of R or Python to follow this workshop. You can gain this knowledge in our workshops Introduction to R and Data or Introduction to Python.
You do need to bring your laptop
You do not need to bring your own research project to the workshop.
The workshop is open to participants from Utrecht University (UU), UMC Utrecht and affiliated organisations if linked via one of the UU Graduate Schools (RIVM, Hubrecht, etc.)
