Introduction to R Programming - Creating Figures One Layer at a Time with ggplot2

This training is a short introduction to data visualization using R’s ggplot2 package. It is aimed at those with some working knowledge of R, and serves as a natural follow-up to the Introduction to R Programming given in April (https://scda-guide.oist.jp/introduction-to-R.html). However, beginners should still be able to follow the core concepts.

The session will focus on creating figures one layer at a time. Depending on time, this may include volcano plots, boxplots, line graphs,PCA plots, as well as how to export figures from R.
