Data Spreadsheets for Biologists Online
Learning how to structure data is an important skill when starting to work with computing and analyzation of data in biology. Learn the fundamentals of good data entry practices, learn how to avoid common formatting problems, learn how to approach date entry, and learn basic quality control and data manipulation techniques. Finally, learn to export your data so that you can manipulate this content with other programming systems. Learning these skills will help prepare you for future skills needed when applying more advanced lessons such as SQL data management and visualization using R and Python. This is part of the Data Carpentries curriculum.
Audience: This workshop is targeted at early-stage researchers, undergraduate and graduate students studying biology and particularly Ecology.
