Title: Building Websites in R with Distill
Date: Thursday, August 17th, 18:00 – 20:00 CEST (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone)
Speaker: Jenny Sloane, postdoc fellow in Health Services Research and Development at the Center for Innovations in Quality, Effectiveness and Safety, which is associated with the Houston VA and Baylor College of Medicine. I received my PhD in cognitive psychology from University of New South Wales. My research interests include improving diagnostic decision-making, reducing errors in medicine, and studying the effects of interruptions and time-pressure on decision-making.
Description: This will be an interactive webinar where we will build a website from scratch in R using the distill package. By the end of the webinar, you will have a fully functioning and live website. I will also show you some cool tips and tricks that I have learned through my experiences building websites in R.
Additional information: If you wish to follow along and build your own website, please make sure to have R, RStudio, and Git installed and please have a GitHub account set up ahead of time.

If you are not personally interested in attending, you can also contribute by sponsoring a participation of a student, who will then be able to participate for free. If you choose to sponsor a student, all proceeds will also go directly to organisations working in Ukraine. You can either sponsor a particular student or you can leave it up to us so that we can allocate the sponsored place to students who have signed up for the waiting list.

You can indicate whether you want to sponsor a particular student or we can allocate this spot ourselves to the students from the waiting list. You can also indicate whether you prefer us to prioritize students from developing countries when assigning place(s) that you sponsored.
If you are a university student and cannot afford the registration fee, you can also sign up for the waiting list here. (Note that you are not guaranteed to participate by signing up for the waiting list).
