  tools. Participants will be encouraged to help one another and to apply wh
 at they have learned to their own research problems.\n\nThis workshop will 
 cover an introduction to Python. Python is a common and powerful programmin
 g language\, with many scientific libraries\; this workshop will cover basi
 c concepts and tools\, including program design\, version control\, data ma
 nagement\, and task automation.\n\nNo prior knowledge is required\; this wo
