The Middle Tennessee chapter of the American Statistical Association (ASA) is hosting this half-day course with the Department of Biostatistics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
Ensuring analyses are reproducible is fundamental to the scientific process. In addition, it is important that these alayses can be easily shared, accessed, and explored. While critical, building analyses that are computationally reproducible, shareable, and accessible is not a trivial task. This issue has captured attention in the statistical and scientific communities, leading to the development of a diverse array of tools and best practices aimed at addressing these challenges. We offer a half-day course that combines a conceptual discussion of reproducibility along with a practical, structured exploration of tools and methods that can be easily adopted to enhance reproducibility and shareability of everyday analyses.
Gregory Hunt is an assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics at the College of William & Mary. He is a trained statistician, mathematician, and computer scientist currently working on a diverse set of problems in biology, physics, and engineering.
Johann Gagnon-Bartsch is an associate professor in the Department of Statistics at the University of Michigan. His primary research areas include causal inference, machine learning, and nonparametric methods with applications in the biological and social sciences.
Lunch and parking are included with registration. Space is limited to 30 participants.
Members of the ASA Middle Tennessee chapter receive discounted registration—visit the ASA Chapters page to join the local association. There will be a chapter meeting immediately following the course.
