Tech-Talk: A principled approach to writing collaborative research code (Virtual Seminar)
-

This is a past event

At this first Turing-Roche Partnership Community Scholar Tech Talk, we will hear from final-year Oxford University DPhil student, Claudia Vanea. Claudia will explore the most useful techniques and practises for writing collaborative research code with examples from research codebases and personal experience. She will focus on version control, abstraction, project structure, and code review, with a special mention of testing and debugging.

Claudia’s work concerns understanding healthy and disease variation in human placenta histology. Through this, she has built a hierarchical deep-learning pipeline for identifying rich whole-slide phenotypes from the single-cell level. This pipeline was originally intended for placenta histology but has since been extended to liver, adipose, kidney, and cross-organ analysis by other researchers.

External event: This event is organised by The Alan Turing Institute. The University of Aberdeen is a member of The Turing University Network, a network committed to offering UK universities the opportunity to engage and collaborate both with The Alan Turing Institute and its broader networks in academia, industry and the public sector.
