The NNLM Carpentries Workshop Series will offer several workshops covering different topics.

The target audience is learners who have little to no prior computational experience, and the instructors put a priority on creating a friendly environment to empower learners and enable data-driven discovery. Even those with some experience will benefit, as the goal is to teach not only how to do analyses, but how to manage the process to make it as automated and reproducible as possible.

Workshops have live captioning.
