Happy New YeaR!

The Chicago R User's Group will return Jan 27 with another Saturday workshop at IIT Stuart School, Room 270

We have two great talks lined up, with discussion time and working time built-in:

11:00-11:30 am: Back to Basics with Base R

Should auld acquaintance be forgot? No! Parfait Gasana (https://stackoverflow.com/users/1422451/parfait) will demonstrate the pros and cons of base R, including applications of the apply family, and draw comparisons to dplyr and data.table.

12:00-12:30 pm: IDBac: A Shiny App to Analyze Bacterial Fingerprints and Aid in the Discovery of Potential New Antibiotics

Then, good tidyings we bring: Chase Clark (https://chasemc.github.io/IDBac/) will demo a Shiny application intended to make spectroscopy analyses more accessible and highlight the usability features.

1:00-2:00 pm - Stick around for Q&A, to refactor your code, or to build a Shiny app.
