Data Visualizations in R Using ggplot2 Online
For this seminar, we will be using the R package ggplot2 to create publication-worthy figures. This is a hands-on seminar using example data to showcase the ggplot2 syntax and how to enhance a basic plot with aesthetics using various functions. Additionally, we will cover color customization in R and how to export figures to file.
Instructors:
Radhika Khetani, PhD, Training Director, Harvard Chan Bioinformatics Core
Meeta Mistry, PhD, Senior Bioinformatics Analyst and Trainer, Harvard Chan Bioinformatics Core
