<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:black">In many domains of research the rapid generation of large amounts of data is fundamentally changing how research is done. The deluge of data presents great opportunities, but also many challenges in
managing, analyzing and sharing data. Data Carpentry is designed to teach basic concepts, skills and tools for working more effectively with data. The workshop is aimed at researchers in the life sciences at all career stages and is designed for learners
with little to no prior knowledge of programming, shell scripting, or command line tools.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
