See if talking to the doctor is right for you.

💬 Speaker(s): Max Hockstein

📝 Abstract:

Clinicians and data professionals have different approaches to data which can lead to communication difficulties within a research team. This session will highlight common areas of confusion between data scientists and clinicians. Several techniques will be reviewed to facilitate communication using several examples in R. There will also be a real, live-clinician who wants to hear from you and will apologize for the actions of any past clinician researchers. posit::conf(2025) Subscribe to posit::conf updates: posit.co/about/subscription-management
