MATLAB provides a flexible, two-way integration with many programming languages, including Python. This allows different teams to work together and use MATLAB algorithms within production software and IT systems. If you have functions and objects in Python, you can call them directly from MATLAB. This allows you to work entirely within MATLAB without switching your programming environment. In this workshop we will discuss the different ways you can incorporate Python into MATLAB. We will look at several examples and incorporate the SunPy Python package for solar data analysis. This will be a fun and interactive workshop, so don’t forget to bring your laptop!

This webinar is offered by Becker Library and WashU's Research Infrastructure Services (RIS). This session will introduce the queue system and basic queue system commands to submit and execute jobs on the Scientific Compute Platform. Attendees will learn how to use Docker images and queue system commands to submit and process jobs.

This session will provide an overview of the updated NIH Public Access Policy for publications including the steps involved with compliance.

Do you need an ORCID iD? Or do you have one already but don’t know how to make the best use of it? This session will provide you with information to not only get you started, but also help you populate and use your ORCID record.
