May 2020 Virtual Data Carpentry Workshop - Python

We are offering free registration to a virtual Data Carpentry Workshop in Python, held from 8.45 am - 12:30 pm on the mornings of Wednesday May 27 and Thursday May 28.

Registration is free, but if you can no longer attend please refund your ticket so we may offer the place to someone else.

This hands-on workshop will cover an introduction to data analysis and visualisation in Python. Participants will be encouraged to help one another and to apply what they have learned to their own research problems.
