Edinburgh ReproducibiliTea Session #6, 19-02-2021

We were delighted to have Dr. Edward Wallace, who is a true example of a researcher who fully embraces the open research ideology, share some of his experiences today with us, including his work for the Edinburgh Carpentries https://edcarp.github.io/. The Edinburgh Carpentries are a wonderful and volunteer-led community who are trained to deliver workshops about introductory coding and best practices for coding and data management, specifically targeted at academics. See an overview of their workshops here: https://edcarp.github.io/workshops/

More about our speaker: 
Dr. Wallace is the leader of the Edinburgh-based Wallace Lab (https://ewallace.github.io/) that studies how organisms respond to their environment, focusing on molecular mechanisms used by fungi. They also develop open-source tools to help others analyze their data, including packages for qPCR (https://github.com/ewallace/tidyqpcr)  and for ribosome profiling analysis (https://github.com/riboviz/riboviz).
