Day 1 Program

(1) R Kickstart and Data Import

Environment setup, first script flow, and importing experimental datasets with reliable structure.

(2) Core Data Structures and Summaries

Work confidently with vectors, factors, data frames, and summary workflows for quick diagnostics.

(3) Experimental Data Quality and Error Checks

Detect anomalies early, validate assumptions, and standardize data-quality checks for analysis readiness.

(4) Data Cleaning and Variable Management

Clean, recode, and normalize variables to keep downstream models consistent and reproducible.

Day 2 Program

(5) Feature Engineering and Data Joins

Create robust derived variables and combine datasets safely while preserving scientific intent.

(6) Data Reshaping and Consistency Checks

Move between long and wide structures and enforce consistency checks before statistical tests.

(7) Data Exploration Foundations

Use fast exploratory loops to identify signal, structure, and plausible biological interpretation.

(8) Assumptions, Outliers, and Group Comparison

Stress-test assumptions, diagnose outliers, and compare groups with transparent decision logic.

(9) Publication-Ready Data Visualization

Design clean, accurate figures for papers and talks with reproducible plotting patterns.

Day 3 Program

(10) Communicating Treatment Effects with Figures

Transform complex outcomes into clear visual narratives that support evidence-based discussion.

(11) T-Tests and Statistical Interpretation

Build sound inference workflows and interpret test results with effect-size aware reporting.

(12) From Question to Experimental Blueprint

Convert research questions into testable study blueprints with practical implementation detail.

(13) Replication, Randomisation, and Design Rigor

Strengthen study reliability with robust design principles and transparent reproducibility standards.

(14) Ecological Sampling and Analysis Alignment

Align field sampling strategy with analysis plans so interpretation remains coherent end-to-end.
