The Turing Way project is illustrated as a road or path with shops for different data science skills. People can go in and out with their shopping cart and pick and choose what they need.

All code used by students, instructors, and other faculty from the past, current, and future should be readily, but voluntarily, available to the jh-gh-community

We’ll focus on three languages for the following reasons:

  1. Entrenched usage of the commercially available Stata

  2. Open-source & free availability of R & Python

  3. GPT-4o yields very accurate code for python (usage data)

Most of what is done is Stata labs can be encoded into a brief Jupter-book, with code in Python, R, and Stata

  • Challenges (honestly, unselectively embrace past, current, future)

  • Skills (table 1, figure 1, grants, databases)

  • Tools (python, ai, r, stata)

Sing O Muse#

  • Jupyter-book series on GitHub (Six)

  • Iterate-dynamically-collaboratively

  • By students & instructors at both SOM & JHSPH

Top Tip

Let’s iterate, dynamically, collaboratively …, openly

In the Foreword Section of this book, we provide meta-level information about The Turing Way, including guidance on how to use and navigate this project, how to cite the book and opportunities to get involved.

The book is collaboratively written and built in the open from the start. You can explore different opportunities to get involved on the start page. Join our Slack Workspace to connect and discuss your ideas and subscribe to our newsletter to follow updates from our community.

Varous Pathways#

Our Community#

The Turing Way community is dedicated to making collaborative, reusable and transparent research “too easy not to do”. That means investing in the socio-technical skills required to work in a team, to build something more significant than any individual could deliver alone.

JH on GH is:

  • a book series

  • a community

  • a global collaboration
