Organizers invite registration for the 2025 Data Science Training Workshop: Fundamentals of Qualitative & Quantitative Arctic Research Using R. This in-person workshop will take place 15-31 January 2025 at the at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) in Santa Barbara, California.

This workshop will provide researchers with an overview of reproducible and ethical research practices, steps, and methods for more easily documenting and preserving their data at the Arctic Data Center, and an introduction to programming in R. Special attention will be paid to qualitative data management, including practices working with sensitive data.

Example datasets will draw from natural and social sciences, and methods for conducting reproducible research will be discussed in the context of both qualitative and quantitative data. Responsible and reproducible data management practices will be discussed as they apply to all aspects of the data life cycle. This includes ethical data collection and data sharing, data sovereignty, and the CARE principles. The CARE principles are guidelines that help ensure open data practices (like the FAIR principles) appropriately engage with Indigenous Peoples’ rights and interests.

Participation in all workshops is limited. Limited travel support is available for in-person participants.
