ABOUT THE SESSION:
Do you need a better way to store your structured research data?
Structured Query Language (SQL) is the standard means for reading from and writing to databases. Databases use multiple tables, linked by well-defined relationships, to store large amounts of data without needless repetition while maintaining the integrity of your data.
Moving from spreadsheets and text documents to a structured relational database will reward you many times over in speed, efficiency and power.
This session has been developed using the researcher-focused training modules from the highly regarded Software Carpentry Foundation (software-carpentry.org). 
You'll learn how to: ● Understand and compose a query using SQL ● Use the SQL syntax to select, sort and filter data ● Calculate new values from existing data ● Aggregate data into sums, averages, and other operations ● Combine data from multiple tables ● Design and build your own relational databases
