BiocSwirl & BiocTerm

BiocSwirl is a series of in-depth swirlify generated courses used to teach bioinformatics workflows in R/Bioconductor

[BiocSwirl & BiocTerm @bioctools]

Hi #bioinformatics Twitter and #AcademicChatter,
we're happy to share BiocSwirl, a platform and R package based on @swirlstats that teaches you R and Bioconductor workflows in a fun and interactive environment!

Got an RNA-seq dataset with 50, 100, 200+ samples? Plug it into a differential expression tool and hope for the best? No! You need to consider QC, EDA, and modeling technical variation, or else risk generating spurious results. A thread on papers, methods, and best practices:

Happy #InternationalWomensDay2022!

[R Contributors @R_Contributors]

Note the Applicant deadline has been extended to March 2 at 4pm UTC.

We are busy working on project proposals and hope to mentor some great interns from the #RStats/#Bioconductor communities!

The tidydatatutor R package is now on CRAN! Send your R code directly to https://t.co/yMoC98GPaJ from RStudio and generate links to Tidy Data Tutor from R code chunks in R Markdown. #rstats https://t.co/8whUOyPzMr

Missed the (AWARD WINNING 🥳) BiocSwirl talk at #Bioc2021? No worries! We have made it available online here https://t.co/IDizJW531K, or you can view the entire Education and Frameworks session here: https://t.co/DThmLv7gi4 @bioctools @Bioconductor

[BiocSwirl & BiocTerm @bioctools]

We're so stoked, @lisancao won Best talk at #Bioc20201 presenting BiocSwirl!

[Lisa N. Cao @lisancao]

I am so happy to say that BiocSwirl won best talk at #Bioc2021!! Absolutely humbling as I know there were many great packages and speakers we were beside. Incredible work from the @bioctools team!!!

[BiocSwirl & BiocTerm @bioctools]

If you're signed up for #Bioc2021 and haven't done so yet, stop by the Education and Frameworks Short Talks session! Our very own @lisancao gave a fantastic talk and demo of our package #BiocSwirl alongside other inspiring #rstats educators

[BiocSwirl & BiocTerm @bioctools]

We're so excited!!

[Lisa N. Cao @lisancao]

BiocSwirl (@bioctools) just got accepted for a short talk at #BioC2021 - deets to come but catch us there if you're attending!

[Lisa N. Cao @lisancao]

Definitely working on @bioctools' BiocSwirl and BiocTerm. Before I felt like I just used R but through the process of working with metadata/configs and trying to call R through an external application forced me to do a LOT of R backend research. Also package development stuff

[BiocSwirl & BiocTerm @bioctools]

What a successful Intro to #Rstats and RNAseq workshop💪 Thank you to everyone who was attending and to @DIAS_org1 at @CSHL for having us! Class photo and workshop recording coming soon!

Hi Twitter: I'm trying to identify scientists in any field who (1) organize scientific hackathons/unconferences/related events or (2) study these events in their research.

Esp. interested in (but not limited to) ppl in Europe + NL. Names + RTs appreciated; it's for a workshop🙂

Happy international #WomenInScience Day!

Check out @RLadiesGlobal @GirlsWhoCode @WeAreRLadies and @WomenInStat for resources on learning to code, how to support women in data science, and to learn about the awesome things #WomenInSTEM get done!

[Girls Who Code @GirlsWhoCode]

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! ✨ To celebrate #WomenInScience, we took a shot at the #AlbumCoverChallenge. How'd we do?

[Lisa N. Cao @lisancao]

Hope you all are doing well. Sending good vibes out before the lunar new year 🐂🐂🐂

What it's like watching someone else analyze your sequencing data after spending months doing the wet lab work:

A little teaser for our upcoming workshop. Kinda... sorta...

[Matthew Moss, PhD 🧬 @MattMoss5595]

made a meme wont be explaining any further

[Dr. Krystal Tsosie, PhD, MPH @kstsosie]

Two dreams have been realized:

1. Co-founding @NativeBio, an #Indigenous-led biobank with fellow Indigenous scientists, now

2. Our nonprofit is hosting IndigiData, a #data #science workshop for tribal students to learn informatics & data ethics.
