AACB Victoria is pleased to announce a hands-on workshop introducing R for clinical biochemistry and laboratory medicine to be held on 9th of June.

This workshop is designed for beginners with prior experience with R. It focuses on practical skills for working with laboratory data, including importing datasets, data cleaning, simple visualisation and performing common laboratory analyses.

The emphasis is on practical application rather than statistical theory, with step-by-step guidance to support participants in developing confidence using R in their own laboratory practice.

The programme combines short guided demonstrations with interactive, hands-on exercises, allowing participants to follow along and apply each step in real time.
