The CAMH Scientific Computing Workshop Series
Our research is increasingly more computationally-driven and training is often not part of the core curriculum for biomedical / medical science degrees.
The Scientific Computing Workshops at CAMH are focused on building computing skills and fundamentals to help organize study data, automate repeatable/reproducible analyses, and make use of CAMH computing resources to save time.
The workshops offer a range of topics and support different levels of experience.
We use a shared dataset - spanning demographic, cognitive, imaging, and genomic data - across all workshops, maintaining consistency across the series.
Given the current COVID-19 global pandemic, SCWG workshop instructors are posting workshop materials and relevant learning resources to this site to aid those learning from home.
