Summary and Schedule

This is the format of the workshop on OMOP and R that will take place at the UCL Festival of Digital Innovation on July 15th 2025.

It is the initial work on a full Carpentries Course that we will begin to roll out from September.

Prerequisite

A laptop running R and RStudio

The actual schedule may vary slightly depending on the topics and exercises chosen by the instructor.

This lesson assumes you have current versions of the following installed on your computer:

  1. the R software itself, and
  2. RStudio Desktop.

You also need to download some files to follow this lesson:

  1. Make a new folder in your Desktop called omop_taster.
  2. Download omop-data.zip and move the file to this folder.
  3. If it’s not unzipped yet, unzip it. There should now be a folder called data in the omop_taster folder.
  4. You can access this folder from the Unix shell with:

BASH

$ cd
$ cd Desktop/omop_taster/data
