About this event

A two-day virtual workshop that provides an entry point to use Python for data analysis in research. Day 1 will start with a short lecture on reproducibility and data integrity in data science and cover packages for making that process easier. Then we will move on to a code along portion as we build understanding of some of the core packages for analyzing data in Python with NumPy, pandas and Biopython as well as how to combine them. Day 2 will begin with an introduction to using statistics for data analysis in Python including linear and non-linear regression followed by visualizing data in Python with matplotlib and seaborn. Day 2 will conclude with a panel discussion (and Q&A) with the instructor and helpers about how they use Python in their work. Your instructor will be Margot Lautens from UT Coders and Donnelly CCBR.

Margot is a PhD student from the Fraser Lab at Donnelly CCBR. Margot is interested in characterizing alternative metabolic pathways in C. elegans to find potential drug targets in parasitic worms. Margot’s work brings together a novel imaging assay with metabolomics and has developed several data analysis pipelines in Python and R. Margot has been an instructor and executive member at UofT Coders since 2018.
