We enjoyed delivering workshops at NYU two weeks ago -- described on our blog (itcrtraining.org/resources/b…) -- by the end of workshops, participants reported increased confidence about understanding gene expression data, utilizing computing resources, and using AI within their work.

Pre workshop confidence ratings are compared to post confidence ratings for each topic with a shift in densities to observed towards higher confidence ratings post-workshop.
