Join our workshop on Visualising connection in R, which is a part of our workshops for Ukraine series!
Here’s some more info:
Title: Visualising connection in R
Date: Thursday, November 9th, 19:00 – 21:00 CEST (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone)
Speaker: Rita Giordano is a freelance data visualisation consultant and scientific illustrator based in the UK. By training, she is a physicist who holds a PhD in statistics applied to structural biology. She has extensive experience in research and data science. Furthermore, she has over fourteen years of professional experience working with R. She is also a LinkedIn instructor. You can find her course “Build Advanced Charts with R” on LinkedIn Learning.
Description: How to show connection? It depends on the connection we want to visualise. We could use a network, chord, or Sankey diagram. The workshop will focus on how to visualise connections using chord diagrams. We will explore how to create a chord diagram with the {circlize} package. In the final part of the workshop, I will briefly mention how to create a Sankey diagram with networkD3. Attendees need to have installed the {circlize} and {networkD3} packages.
