Come and ask IT questions such as: getting started with Python and R, stats, machine learning, bio-image, software tools, research data management (RDM), how to access high performance computing, cloud data storage and tools for data cleaning and data visualisation. Bring your project's IT problems or come along as a helper! Very occasionally Hacky Hour may not run; follow us on Twitter (@HackyHourStLuc) to get the latest announcements. Aside from the usual IT research questions,
- First Tuesday of the month: Bioinformatics Hacky Hour, ask bioinformatics analysis, software and pipeline questions
