I train the next generation of data scientists. As a professor, I have trained hundreds of undergraduates, dozens of graduate students, and even several other faculty in how to think about, analyze, visualize, and report their data.
My area of focus uses data science to understand decision making by integrates biology, psychology, computer science, neuroscience, and economics. I employ open science practices to ensure that my work is transparent, accessible, and reproducible.
LinkedinThis course introduces students to the fundamental concepts and methods used in the R statistical software package to prepare, visualize, and disseminate data.
GitHub repositoryThis R package facilitates checking for, marking, and excluding rows of data frames for common exclusion criteria found in online data surveys from Qualtrics.
Package websiteOver 12 years of experience using R to analyze and visualize data and Sweave/R Markdown to report my research. I teach courses and workshops on using R for data science and developing reproducible workflows.
Download My Resume View My Academic CVI can really tell that Jeff put A LOT of work into this course. He created lots of course learning materials and tools that were invaluable to learning R and about data wrangling and visualization.
Everything we do in this class is an active learning opportunity. There a ton of in class questions which really help up think about what he have already learned and what we are currently learning.
It's always clear that Jeff cares about his students' well-being and learning above all else. It's always nice to see that instructors care about students and see them as whole people.
