  • Online
  • Events

📅 Date: Tuesday, December 1, 2026
⏰ Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM (EST)
💻 Location: Online (Microsoft Teams link provided upon registration)
🏫 Instructor: Arun Seetharam


Who Should Attend

Researchers who analyze biological data in R and want to run RStudio and Bioconductor packages on RCAC clusters instead of an overloaded laptop.

What You’ll Learn

  • How to start RStudio on RCAC clusters and request the right amount of memory and time
  • What the r-bioconductor environment provides and how to add packages of your own
  • How to move an analysis from an interactive RStudio session to a batch job when it outgrows the session

By the End of the Session, You’ll

  • Run RStudio on an RCAC cluster with resources sized to your data
  • Load Bioconductor packages from the provided environment and install additional ones
  • Submit an R script as a batch job for longer analyses

Level

Basic. Basic familiarity with R is helpful.
