This course will provide an introduction to programming, in R and/or python, with topics and pace designed for biomedical students interested in data science. Prior programming experience is not required. Students will learn how to write code for handling data, focusing on dataframe representations. Using these common representations, students will learn to prepare data for analysis starting from various formats, visualize its contents, and perform basic analysis to evaluate the data veracity. This course is structured as a series of stackable short-courses, where students need to select and complete 4 short courses in the semester to fulfill requirements for this credit-earning course.
