8th Workshop on Collaborative Scientific Software Development and Management of Open Source Scientific Packages


Writing software has become central to research in many fields of science. This Workshop aims to give early-career scientists an introduction to a variety of topics that help them to write efficient, clean, maintainable and long-lived code that is useful beyond solving an immediate problem. In a mixture of talks and many hands-on sessions, the focus lies on showing best practices and building fundamental skills in creating, extending and collaborating on modular and reusable software.


Topics:

Effective collaborative development with multiple co-authors

Python / shell scripts as glue code

Modular, reusable software design

Software optimization

Version control and release cycles

Automated testing frameworks

Structured documentation

Management of open source scientific packages

Continuous integration & deployment

Conversational development

The online Workshop has a limited number of 35 seats. Participation requires attending all e-classes and a full-time commitment to the final 3-days projects, in which participants will work in remote groups. At the end of the course, to obtain the final certificates, group members are expected to leverage on collaborative development techniques to deliver a final software.
Deadline for applications is set at 27th September, participants can apply here: https://e-applications.ictp.it/applicant/login/3646

Statistics with Julia is your one stop shop for statistics, machine learning, and data science using the Julia language. Use the book if you are a Julia user who wants to learn statistics or improve your statistics knowledge. Use it if you know some statistics and want to explore how it is done via Julia. Use it if you are just entering the world of data science and want to pick up a cool modern programming language together with the study of elementary statistical concepts needed for machine learning, data science, and artificial intelligence. You can read it cover to cover, or access bits in random order. Most importantly you may try out the Julia source code as you read the book.

Open #PhD #position in mathematical neuroscience in Berlin
Dear friends and colleagues,

we are looking for a PhD candidate in mathematical neuroscience on the topic "Dynamics and variability of structured spiking neural networks". Although the focus is on the theory side, the project also includes the analysis of neuronal population data and associated problems of data assimilation. Methods will be developed within the frameworks of stochastic processes, statistical physics and nonlinear dynamics.

The PhD position in my group will be part of the vibrant computational neuroscience community at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Berlin and the Institute of Mathematics of TU Berlin.

The successful candidate should have a degree in mathematics or physics, keen interest in computational neuroscience, expertise in analytical calculations, programming skills (C++ or C, Python or Julia, LaTeX), and excellent command of the English language, and good communication skills.

Funding is provided for five years. Applications, including a letter of motivation, a CV, a current copy of academic transcripts, and a list of at least two potential referees should be sent by email to me:

schwalger@math.tu-berlin.de

The deadline for applications is October 15th 2021, however, later applications might also be considered. More information is available under:

Kind regards,

Tilo Schwalger

🐚 Brace expansion in shells like Bash and Zsh can be very useful to avoid repeating yourself. ✨

For example, if you want to do:

$ mv some_long_file_name.txt some_long_file_name.rs

You can write this instead:

$ mv some_long_file_name.{txt,rs}

Here's some ways to use braces
