SUMMARY:Data Skills Workshop: Data Analysis - Manipulation in R using dplyr and tidyr
DESCRIPTION:R is a programming language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. This workshop will introduce you to the dplyr package which makes tabular data manipulations easier by using a set of functions to extract and summarize insights from your data. The tidyr package works well with tidy to quickly convert between different data formats (long v. wide) for graphing and analysis. \nThis workshop builds upon the material presented in Part 1: Into R and RStudio. This is not an introductory workshop and requires participants to have taken Part 1 or have experience with R. Please bring a laptop for your own use during the workshop. \nBefore attending the workshop\, please complete the following: \n\nDownload and Install R\nWindows User\nMac User\nInstall RStudio Desktop\n\nWhat is R used for? Introduction to RStudio basics. \nPlease note: All software installation must be done before the workshop. Please follow any account creation or software installation instructions.

SUMMARY:Metagenomics-Based Ecosystem Biomonitoring (Ecobiomics)
DESCRIPTION:Teresita Porter\, research scientist with the Great Lakes Forestry Centre\, Natural Resources Canada and a visiting research scientist with U of G’s Centre for Biodiversity Genomics will discuss water and soil biodiversity and how they are essential to sustaining diverse ecosystem services and economic activities across Canada. \nPorter’s research background is in ecology and evolution\, mycology and bioinformatics. Her current work focuses on using genomics methods to monitor water quality\, soil health and sustainability from environmental DNA. Porter has a special interest in how methodological bias affects the analysis of biodiversity and biomonitoring data. \nFind more info on this talk and the CBG Seminar Series. \nMetagenomics-Based Ecosystem Biomonitoring (Ecobiomics)\nWater and soil biodiversity are essential to sustain diverse ecosystem services and economic activities across Canada. Genomics tools are ideal for characterizing complex biodiversity. Teresita Porter will introduce the Government of Canada’s Genomics Research and Development Initiative\, focusing on one of their large interdepartmental projects\, the Metagenomics-Based Ecosystem Biomonitoring (Ecobiomics) project. Porter will discuss the goals and organization of this five-year project. She will review some of the key areas where they have been able to standardize methods during field sampling\, lab processing\, sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. Porter’s area of expertise is in the bioinformatic handling and analysis of metabarcoding datasets\, so she will take a shallow dive into the structure of their bioinformatic approach. Porter will discuss how they established a bulk soil sampling methodology that targets arthropods from bulk soil. She will also briefly introduce two ongoing projects that focus on using bulk soil metabarcoding to assess the sustainability of timber harvest.

SUMMARY:Black History Month: Opening Ceremony with Zaki Ibrahim
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the start of 2020 Black History Month! The month’s opening ceremony includes remarks from the Guelph Black Students Association and Caribbean Culture Club followed by a performance by Zaki Ibrahim. \nDescribed as “a retro-Afrofuturist vision sending listeners on a journey through 40 years of electronic music\,” Ibrahim’s music brings elements of spoken word\, hip hop\, soul\, house and 70s pop together\, filtered through the prismatic and often contradictory lenses of personal\, historical and scientific relativities. Even the concept of diaspora seems to fall short of capturing the vivid vibrational multitudes of Ibrahim’s scope.

SUMMARY:Black History Month: Barrington Walker -The Role of the Church in Shaping 'Modern’ Black Canada
DESCRIPTION:As part of Black History Month 2020\, this talk by Barrington Walker will consider the history of the church in Black Canada and its role in affirming community bonds and forging Black freedom from early emancipation until the emergence of a “secular” civil rights movement. \nThrough a case studies approach\, and by drawing upon published scholarship and community histories\, Walker will highlight stories of the Black Church from the 18th to the 20th century. Walker will explore how the church has anchored Black Canadians in the context of a settler racial colonial state and created new identities and cultures in a place where full freedom and citizenship have been and continue to be elusive. This talk suggests that careful consideration of the Black Church alerts us to the possibilities and the limits of Black belonging in Canada. \nSee more Black History Month events supported by U of G. \nPresented in collaboration with the University of Guelph’s Cultural Diversity Office.
