Description:

In this workshop, we will go over how to connect to databases and make queries using packages in R.

Prerequisites: Participants should be familiar with R at the level of the R Fundamentals Bootcamp, another introductory R workshop, or be a self-taught R coder.

Next Steps in R is a series of workshops that will help you improve your research code through new packages, skills, and other tips. You do not need to attend each session to participate. Each one-hour session meets via Zoom on a Tuesday at noon, CDT.

This workshop series complements our other data science services and support for researchers. All Northwestern researchers (student, staff, and faculty in all fields) can request free consultations with our Data Scientists and Statisticians to guide you through your data project, from considering the feasibility and choosing a method to troubleshooting the code and suggesting improvements. If you're looking for more extensive support, we partner on faculty-sponsored research through our project collaboration service.
