This free ²¹²Ô»åÌýbeginner-level series is intended for graduate students and postdocs with little to no previous experience in programming to learn the fundamentals of programming in Python for data analysis.
The series will run from the week of February 3 to the week of April 1, 2025, and will consist of self-guided online lessons, ongoing peer support and weekly two-hour workshops on Tuesdays OR ThursdaysÌýat the HBHL offices (located on the 18th floor of )Ìýfrom 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. EST.ÌýPlease note that there will be no classes during the March Reading Week, i.e., the week of March 3, 2025.

- Weekly two-hour small group workshops held in-personÌýat the HBHL Offices. These are designed to build on the online lessons—you will work collaboratively to solve problems and apply your new knowledge to research-related examples. Please note that accommodations can be made if necessary.
- Ongoing peer support. Stuck on the online lesson? Have a coding problem at the lab? Discovered a helpful strategy or shortcut? Online discussions between workshops facilitate collaborative troubleshooting and idea sharing.
