COVID-19 outbreak-related information
Dear Visitors! A big part of the RaukR experience was coding and exchanging knowledge in a unique environment provided by Campus Visby in Gotland. Sadly, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, RaukR 2020 did not happen. This year, we still have to obey a number of restrictions and guidelines due to the outbreak. While we still cannot gather in Visby, we decided to go online and we hope this year we will also learn a lot and have fun coding together! We wish you all the best. See you online! Stay safe and healthy!

Organizers

Cost

  • Academic: no fee this year. However, if you register and are admitted but do not attend the event without a valid reason, you will be charged a no-show fee of 4000 SEK.

  • Non-academic: Participants from outside of academia should contact us for a fee quote.

Entry requirements

The school is aimed at both Ph.D. students and researchers within life sciences who are already using basic R in their bioinformatics data analyses and who would like to start using R at a more advanced level. In order for you and other participants to benefit the most, you should consider yourself eligible if you are comfortable with reading and transforming data, installing and using third-party packages and plotting using standard R graphics.

We offer places for participants from all over the world, but there is a number of places reserved for participants from Sweden.

Selection criteria

This year, the school can accommodate ~30 participants. Selection criteria include correct entry requirements, motivation to attend the course as well as gender and geographical balance. This year, we will also give priority to students who have already been admitted to RaukR 2020 (which was cancelled).
