Stephen Royle has a set of challenges:

In a previous post, I described how to run a session to teach R to cell biologists. In this post we’ll look in a bit more detail at one of the steps: how to load data into R.

As a reminder, a typical analysis task in cell biology follows these steps:

  • do the experiment(s)
  • collect the data – e.g. microscopy images
  • analyse and get a plain text (csv) output – e.g. using Fiji
  • load the data into R
  • crunch some numbers and plot
