Virtual Workshop

Learn the fundamentals of visualization and figure design in base R, ggplot2, and other popular graphics packages. Students will create many commonly requested bioinformatics visualizations, from scatter plots (including volcano plots, dot plots, and UMAP biplots), to box plots, heat maps, and multi-panel figures. By the end of the course, students will have not only code templates for standard plots, but also the skills with which to customize their own publication-ready figures. Familiarity with the concepts covered in our Introduction to R for Bioinformatics course is a prerequisite.

The registration fee is $350 for current students, postdocs, staff and faculty at Univeristy of California campus' or UC National Labs (LBNL, LANL, LLNL), $500 for other academic or non-profit participants and $650 for other participants. We accept credit cards, as well as UC Davis recharge accounts, for payment.
