#9: Using Git to Drive Better Science with Dr. Julie Lowndes

This episode, I’m speaking with Dr. Julie Lowndes of Openscapes.

Don’t learn R alone! Resources for you and your friends: 

• her online training on Github for Excel users; 

• the core (open and free) text behind R is R for Data Science; 

• a guide to The Tidyverse. 

• This is the paper on how the Ocean Health Index used GitHub not just to track their data and writing but also to improve the way they work together. 

Openscapes, a platform for open science, and an example from a UMass lab using Github to lay out what they work on and how they work together.
