	"description": "\u003Cp\u003EThis workshop is targeted at a broad audience of researchers who want to learn how to be more efficient and effective in their data analysis and computing, whatever their career stage may be.\u003Cbr\u003EThe lesson is inspired by and based on the paper, Good Enough Practices in Scientific Computing (Wilson et al., 2017): \u0026ldquo\u003Ba set of good computing practices that every researcher can adopt, regardless of their current level of computational skill\u0026rdquo\u003B. These practices encompass data management, programming, collaborating with colleagues, organizing projects, tracking work, and writing manuscripts. The goal is to share ideas and practices that can be used to have a smoother experience while performing computational research. These can be considered equivalent to the basic lab skills one is introduced to and trained on for a smooth and safe lab experience.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EPrerequisites: There are no specific prerequisites. Learners should be participating or intending to participate in scientific research that involves computing.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003ELearning outcomes:\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Good enough practices for data management\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Good enough practices for project organization\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Good enough practices for file naming conventions\u003Cbr\u003E\u002D Good enough practices for tracking changes\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EThis event is not being recorded.
