[FRB-CESAB] Data Toolbox for Reproducible Research in Computational Ecology – 2022
Version control, reproducibility, compendium and containerization
The CESAB – Centre for Biodiversity Synthesis and Analysis – and the GdR EcoStat organize the fourth edition of the training course “Data Toolbox for Reproducible Research in Computational Ecology”. The objective of this five-day course is to train young researchers in reproducibility, software development and version management tools (Git, R Markdown, renv, Docker), applied to biodiversity research. The RStudio IDE will be used throughout the training.
This training will be given in French and will take place from November 28 to December 2, 2022 at CESAB in Montpellier. Its price is 200 € for the week – lunch included. Transportation, accommodation and evening meals are at the charge of the participants.
The GdR EcoStat offers financial support to those whose funds available through the supervisor/laboratory would not be sufficient. These scholarships are primarily intended for PhD students and post-doctoral fellows. In order to benefit from these grants, the participant must belong to a laboratory member of the GdR. The amount of the financial support granted will depend on the number of applications.
