An introduction to R for biologists. The course will cover the basics of R language, its logic, and its potential. The course will bring students to a level where they understand R in a way, they can tackle any task by themself and have the skill set to problem-solve issues they might encounter. The aim is not to gain proficiency in R, but rather to assimilate a basic but solid tool set to build on. The course include some basic statistics (such as lm, glm, t-test, anova); however it is not a statistics course and we do not focus on explaining the statistics behind the tests.
By the end of the course, the students will be able to:
- Understand the logic and advantages of R language in RStudio
- Manipulate basic datasets using tidyverse packages
- Visualise data before analysis
- Analyse a typical biology dataset using basic statistics
- Be proactive when coding and solving problems
