Welcome to the datasci4docs wiki! We are going to set-up and run a 'data carpentry' style course for clinicians with a specific focus on critical care. Some of the sessions will be developed, presented, tested, and modified at the regular datascibc weekly meetings.

To attract a good audience and make sure the course it worthwhile for all then

  • it will map to specific parts of the RCOA and FICM curriculum
  • we will make available a variety of data sets for all (but encourage people to bring their own data and make it available for sharing and hosting) - we could provide the environment for this (?via figshare or similar).

Possible 'introductory' sessions

  • excel sheets done right
  • tidying data in R
  • inspecting and simple data visualisation
  • statistics (perhaps done by following the format of 'Statistics done wrong' by Alex Reinhart)
  • R markdown and programmers notebooks / reproducible research

Possible advanced sessions

  • SQL
  • Git
  • command line intro
