About the Book
This book is a companion to a series of courses introducing the essentials of biological data science with R.

The BDSR book and accompanying course introduces methods, tools, and software for reproducibly managing, manipulating, analyzing, and visualizing large-scale biological data using the R statistical computing environment. This book also covers essential statistical analysis, and advanced topics including survival analysis, predictive modeling, forecasting, and text mining.
