ASA Connect

A quick reminder that our first webinar of the series is Thursday at 11am Eastern. Looking forward to seeing you and your colleagues there!

As part of the "big tent" of data science, we're launching a free LinkedIn Live webinar series aimed at life scientists who want to strengthen their data skills. While the series is designed for scientists at the bench, the material will also be useful for early-career data scientists.

We know many ASA members collaborate with scientists outside of statistics and data science. If you know colleagues, trainees, or students who might benefit, please consider passing this along.

First up (this week):
📅 Thurs Aug 21 @ 11am EST
🧪 The All-In Upskill: How a Lab Manager Made the Leap to Data Science
