Overview

NESCent held a hackathon to help foster an interoperating ecosystem of scalable tools and resources for population genetics data analysis in the popular R platform. Targets included interoperability, scalability, and reducing workflow building challenges among the many population genetics R packages that already exist. The allowed a diverse group of population genetics researchers, method developers, and people with other relevant areas of expertise to collaborate on code, documentation, use-cases, and other resources that will aid their communities.
