DSAC Sub-Committees

Chair: Megan Bishop (megan.bishop@emory.edu)

The Data Visualization and Analysis Committee (DVA) is dedicated to enhancing the bioinformatics and computational skills of graduate students in the Graduate Division of Biological and Biomedical Sciences (GDBBS). Our primary focus is on offering engaging monthly workshops that equip students with essential quantitative skills, such as statistical modeling or making publication quality figures in Python. Additionally, the DVA committee is available as a resource for providing constructive feedback on visualizations and formatting to ensure that figures meet publication-quality standards. Through our initiatives, we aim to bridge gaps in bioinformatics education and develop stronger computational skills across GDBBS programs.
