Join me in exploring how statistical programming powered by #RStats and other open-source tools will look like in 2030 (at least if I have a say😉). youtu.be/N7Bw8c3D5fU

TIL: you can install binary #RStats packages on Debian #Linux by running `sudo apt install r-cran-<pkg_name>` in the terminal. Just tried with {tidyverse}. Installing took < 1 min rather than > 10 minutes when installing from source. Awesome!

It's been ages since I've last wrote my newsletteR. But finally here's the latest edition where I'm looking back at what I spend most of 2021 with: the development of the {admiral} #RStats 📦. Yet another step towards R based clinical trial reporting. buttondown.email/thomasadventur…

Finally had time to create my take on the Starbucks dataset by #TidyTuesday from last year. It's basically a Lollipop chart with a twist. Hope you like it :). Done in #Rstats #ggplot2 and a little #inkscape. #dataviz #Datavisualization #data Code: git.io/J9GMn

Thanks for the shout out! A year worth of effort involving more than a dozen individuals from 2 pharma companies jointly working as 1 dev team. Been an awesome experience! One step further along the journey of making #RStats the tool of choice for #datascience in pharma.

Developing {ggtrace} has led me to the most black magic thing I've ever discovered in R: Using `trace()`, you can inject an expression which, when triggered, will "climb up" to the caller frame and evaluate a `return()` statement in there, highjacking its output from the inside!

Only 4 days left until it's finally time for my #RStats workshop at R in Pharma! Upon popular demand we increased the maximum number of participants so make sure to sign up and save your place at the event.

I have a confession: it's been a year or so since #RStats version 4.1 has been released and I have yet to use the native pipe operator `|>` 😱

Paolo Crosetto (@paolocrosetto) 's Twitter Profile Photo

As far as my coding goes, the only advantage of the native pipe is that it renders as a *very* cool triangle. {magrittr} or Posit PBC people, add a hack to Rstudio to display %>% in a cooler way and I will never ever switch! Please?

Can't wait to kick off 2023 with a #Posit webinar on how Roche is shifting to #RStats as its backbone for analyzing and reporting clinical trials. This has been in the making for 5+ years and we're almost there. Such an exciting time to work in Pharma. Make sure to tune in!

Can't wait to share all the great stuff we've been working on to make #RStats our default language for clinical trial data analysis and reporting.

Props to everyone at Roche (100+ people) who've made this transition possible. I may be presenting in the webinar (along with 2 of my great colleagues) but I only served my little part in this effort. It definitely takes a village for such a change to materialize. #RStats

It was a great pleasure presenting about our shift towards leveraging #RStats and other open -source technologies for analyzing and reporting our clinical trials!

A week ago I had my last at Roche. It felt weird to leave such a great organization after almost 4 years of working their and pushing for the adoption of #opensource and in particular #rstats within the company and beyond. Tomorrow a new chapter starts. I'm excited!!
