BSAS R & STATISTICS WORKSHOP 15-16th July 2025 

Our hugely popular ‘R and Statistics Workshop’ will be returning for 2025. Led by Dr Davina Hill, University of Glasgow, our two-day ‘R and Statistics Workshop’ offers a comprehensive introduction to the statistical software package ‘R’, a refresh on experimental design, and support with using robust statistical analysis in your own work. Whether you are new to ‘R’ or need an update, this training webinar will help to refresh your knowledge and enhance your skills.   

The workshop will be held remotely on Zoom, using a combination of lectures and break-out groups.  Each session will begin with a brief introduction in Zoom's main room, followed by computer-based tutorials in smaller break-out groups. You will be provided with theory notes and practical exercises to complete under the supervision of your tutor. This format allows ample opportunity for discussion and questions. The two-day event will be structured into three themed sessions each day; 

SESSION 1: GETTING STARTED WITH R   

SESSION 2: DATA MANAGEMENT: EXPLORING AND VISUALISING DATA 

SESSION 3: GETTING STARTED WITH DATA ANALYSIS IN R 

SESSION 4: COMPARING TWO GROUPS 

SESSION 5: REGRESSION ANALYSIS 

SESSION 6: ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE
