The Health Sciences Library purchased a MakerBot Replicator 3D Printer in the fall of 2015.

Presentation: Lightning Talks 3
\n<\/strong>Name of presenter(s): Tiffany J. Grant, research informationist<\/strong><\/p>\n

Data analysis is often a service that researchers outsource due to lack of time, knowledge or available tools. They sought to develop a cost-effective, low maintenance statistical support service that would educate researchers on statistical software and programming language tools and provide minor data analyses for research projects. They submitted a job description to find knowledgeable and motivated university graduate students to tutor peers, faculty and staff on the programming languages R and Python and the statistical programs SAS and SPSS. Two graduate students were selected to perform the duties of the newly established program in the Health Sciences Library.<\/p>\n
