  • description:

    Our Digital Research Clinic offers you an opportunity to work on your research software and data analysis projects with the help of our experts. You bring your projects and we help you improve them; whether it is a short script or an elaborate application. In addition, you can exchange ideas and solutions with other participants.

    We start with a short impulse on tasks and tools that can help you with your software development, automate your data analysis, or make your research reproducible. This includes, among others, the use of version control software, writing software tests, and creating documentation. The rest of the day is dedicated to working on your projects.

    To be able to properly participate in this event, you should have basic programming skills as well as task, that you want to solve using your own or open-source software.

    We offer consultations in German as well as English language.
