Workshops

The DataLab offers workshops (short seminars, half to full day, or multiple day modules) that complement the material taught in regular courses, provide hands-on applications, and present new topics and under development techniques. Workshop topics depend on the needs of our data science community and available expertise. All members of the UC Davis community (students, postdocs, faculty, staff) are welcome to register. DataLab Affiliates have priority registration.

Workshops are announced on our website and on our listserv. Subscribe for notices about future workshops, or view our upcoming workshops on our calendar.

All workshops are held in the DataLab Classroom, room 360 in Shields Library. unless specified otherwise. Materials from previous workshops, including recordings when available, can be found in the following table.
