Website tagline:

{what} + {whom}

Helping researchers improve reproducibility and data analysis workflows

Helping researchers create effective reproducibility and data analysis workflows

We train researchers in effective reproducibility and data analysis workflows

**Training researchers in open, reproducible, and effective data analysis workflows**

Supporting open, effective, reproducible data workflows in CALES

create data workflows

Training researchers in open data analysis workflows with a focus on efficiency and reproducibility

Collaborate with us and produce dynamic and effective data analysis workflows with a focus on reproducibility (it's free!)

"dynamic data analysis workflows"
"dynamic and effective reproducibility"

Our mission is to enable data-intensive research and computing for agricultural, environmental, and life sciences. We support the University of Arizona’s College of Agriculture and Life Science, the Arizona Experiment Station, and the Cooperative Extension Service and collaborators by helping scientists with analysis, software, data, and computing. Our vision is that digital collaboration will enable more effective and sustainable management of systems that produce food, energy, and ecosystem services.

### 11/27/2023

- [ ] Assign "tag" to each project
- [ ] Assign "tag" to each workshop

#### Notes

- What to call tags section? Areas of expertise, themes, explore our ...
- Made [mockup](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1U5XBFv9cUq95yFiaGGFg14So_VsCMWrLlySCrAgCXRo/edit#slide=id.p) of new homepage: Title, short blurb about what we do; upcoming event; cards for workshops, drop-in-hours, etc; tag list; footer

#### Choices

- databases x x x x
- interactive visualizations x x x x
- Reproducible reports x x x x
- data wrangling x x
- Statistical modeling x x
- Research software

Didn't win:
- R x x
- automation x
- version control x
- Python

### 11/20/2023

- [x] (group) Choose 5-6 tags: data wrangling, databases, version control? <!-- more of a method we use than a tag? do researchers know what this is? Alternatively, "git" -->, interactive visualizations, R, Python, reproducible reports <!-- alternatively, "Quarto" -->, statistical modeling, automation? <!-- Definitely a thing we do, but maybe lower on the list than other tags-->
- [x] Shorten card descriptions on home page
- [x] Drop-in Hours
- [x] Workshops
- [x] Incubators
- [x] Proposal writing
- [x] Long-term Collaboration

#### Notes
- areas of expertise page
- tag cloud on "meet our team" page?

* data analysis lifecycle: management, analysis, visualizations
* reproducible research practices
* ~~custom~~(?) scientific software development

#### card rewrites
- Q: Do we want a "Learn more" link at bottom of all cards that link to main page of topic? Example in "Data Science Incubator" below
- A: No. The whole card should be clickable and lead to the main page for that topic. This is already implemented for the Drop-in hours card

##### Drop-In Hours
Meet with our team members to get help, ask questions, or share knowledge.
Every Tuesday at 9am on [Gather](https://app.gather.town/app/hJnpDMJnjJJYtktl/cct-datascience).

##### Workshops
Check out our [upcoming]() and [past]() monthly workshops or [request a topic](https://datascience.cals.arizona.edu/contact).

##### Data Science Incubator
Collaboratively develop your research [project](https://datascience.cals.arizona.edu/cct-data-science-incubator#block-views-projects-block) with 80 hours of our team’s time.
Open to all faculty, staff, and students in ALVSCE—[learn more](https://datascience.cals.arizona.edu/cct-data-science-incubator).

##### Proposal Writing
We can help you craft the data management, data analysis, or computing infrastructure parts of your grant proposals.
<!-- Question: does "we can be co-PIs on grants" go here or in Long-Term Collaboration? Or could these cards be combined? -->

##### Long-Term Collaboration
For projects beyond the scope of the Data Science Incubator, our team members are available for hire or as co-PIs on grants proposals with anyone at UA. <!-- Should we change the title to somethign else? We are also available "for hire" for shorter term projects for folks not eligible for incubators (e.g. not in ALVSCE or already did an incubator) -->

Need to be specific to different stakeholders.

1. ALVSCE researchers

> For **faculty, staff, postdocs, and graduate students in ALVSCE at University of Arizona** who **need to be able to manage, analyze, and share data more easily and reproducibly,** our **workshops and incubator program** strengthen **your intermediate skills in data management, coding, and analysis workflows through training and one-on-one help.** Unlike **most university courses and introductory workshops,** our program**ming should directly and immediately improve your research.**

2. University admins/higher ups
3. Potential members of our group

Eric: continue converting workshops to events on website (nevermind, can't do that until years < 2022 are valid choices for event dates)

David: 1. Wrapped up activity report for Rahr & Mcclellan (list below) and 2. response to reviewers for Chorover STC
- [x] tally/headcount of the number of projects we do for the academic units and CES (from Matt R):
- update and fill out this [google sheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YOAUEPRCSo0zzkLQIyO_DtrjH_T8nfnAMVAueL7-OEk/edit#gid=0):
- Please include entries for directly billed work and unfunded/subsidized work. If something is missing off this list, or you have other ideas that demonstrates ROI, please let me know! Also, ping me when you’re able to complete this. Not a huge rush, but let’s shoot for a **Jan 13 deadline**.
