[dinosaur] Transmitting Science course on R Shiny, February 18-22, Barcelona

["soledad.esteban" <soledad.esteban@icp.cat>]

Dear colleagues,

The second edition of the course INTERACTIVE DATA ANALYSIS AND VISUALIZATION 
WITH R SHINY has opened registration.

Instructor: Dr. Ashton Drew (KDV Decision Analysis LLC, USA)

Dates and place: February 18th-22nd, 2019; Capellades (Barcelona, Spain)

Course Overview
This course is for individuals considering developing Shiny apps to deliver 
their research. Thus, the goal will be to teach the skills necessary to 
translate static products (your current analysis in R) to dynamic products 
delivered via a simple web-based graphic-user interface.
After a brief survey of the available basic tools (widgets such as slider bars, 
check boxes, and pick lists), we will move quickly to learn more advanced 
interactive features.
Activities interspersed throughout the class will provide hands-on practice 
with sample biological and ecological data. By the end of the course, students 
will have built a portfolio of example code and will have designed, 
constructed, and published at least one example Shiny app.
Why Shiny?
Shiny turns static data products into interactive web apps. With interactive 
and reactive data visualizations, your audience directly engages with your data 
for stronger communication and better understanding. The Shiny apps can easily 
be launched directly to the web via shinyapps.io or Shiny Server to be run by 
anyone (they donât need to download your data or have R!).
Other Shiny examples: K-means (statistics), TreeViewer (visualization of 
phylogenetic trees), Word Cloud (generator of word clouds).
