Abstract

The materials and in Italian and English (and the mentors too!)

Taking the first steps in this field can be hard, but you don’t have to do it alone. We invite those from underrepresented groups to apply to join us for a fun, supportive Humble Data workshop that will give you the confidence to get started in this exciting area. You can expect plenty of exercises, as well as inspiring talks from those who were once in your shoes. You’ll cover the basics of programming in Python, as well as useful libraries and tools such as Jupyter Notebooks, Pandas, and Matplotlib.

You can still apply to the waiting list here: https://forms.gle/64cMDoJb31r7DzpD9

In this hands-on workshop you’ll work through a series of beginner-friendly materials at your own pace. You’ll work within small groups, each with an assigned mentor, who will be there to help you with any questions or whenever you get stuck. All you’ll need to bring is a laptop that can connect to the internet and a willingness to learn!

Do you want to be a mentor instead? Please feel this form instead, and thank you!
