Reproducible Research through Reusable Code

eScience Center Digital Skills Programme

Do you want to learn how to make your code reusable by others? Then join this workshop!

Netherlands eScience Center

The workshop will take place at Science Park 402, 1098 XH Amsterdam. Please note that lunch and drinks at the end of the workshop are included.This workshop teaches you the skills to make your code reusable by others. You will practice these skills by directly applying them to your own project. Inevitably, this will make your research more reproducible.You should bring your own coding project to the workshop that you would like to make reusable and share with others.The workshop is based on the teaching style of the Carpentries, and learners will follow along while the instructors write the code on screen.
