Hello QSB,<br>
<br>
We will be holding a pilot workshop on Reproducible Research using
the Jupyter notebook January 11-12. <br>

as a tool promoting best practices for reproducible research.
Jupyter notebooks are increasingly widely adopted, and have
been the main method of displaying detailed results in a
number of high-profile scientific papers. As a tool promoting
reproducible practices, Jupyter notebooks allow users to
interleave text, code, and output into a single, interactive
document that includes features facilitating research
exploration, interactive learning, and sharing over the
internet. Their dynamic nature is ideally suited to sharing
all steps of the research workflow in a reproducible manner.
Although this workshop will use Python as the programming
language, Jupyter notebooks can be used with over 40 common
programing languages, and the notebook document format is
programming language-agnostic.</span>

workshop is aimed at graduate students, postdocs, and other
researchers who perform computational analysis or work. The
material uses basic Python for teaching and illustrating the
key concepts. Advanced knowledge of Python is not needed,
but some familiarity with Python will aid in absorbing the
material.</span></p>
