“I benefited tremendously from the Introduction to Python workshop taught by Andras Zsom. The workshop provided hands-on training to gain experience using common tools and packages, with the opportunity to apply these techniques to data. The most beneficial part of the workshop was the detailed and patient guidance in applying these techniques to my own work. I am now using Python in a new research project and it is thanks to this workshop.“
