27.07-05.08.2026Data Analysis, Visualization, and Reproducibility

The ability to analyze and visualize data is of ever-increasing importance in biomedical research. This event aims to learn basic data analysis skills using practical examples and exercises. This includes:

  • Forms of visualization
  • Data exploration using “no-code”
  • Basics of programming and use of suitable tools
  • Code-based analysis and visualization of tabular data
  • Reproducibility

The event will consist of 2 SWS, which will consist of a combination of lecture units and practical exercises, depending on the topic and progress. As proof of achievement, each participant should create a portfolio in which what they have learned -  and also, if necessary, any difficulties in understanding - are presented in their own words or sketches.
