About

The Turing Way is an open source community-driven book on reproducible, ethical and collaborative data science.
We involve and support a diverse community in participating, skill-building, exchanging ideas, developing resources and making data science inclusive as they collaborate with each other.

Our community members are learners, students, educators, researchers, policymakers, professionals, funders and more!

We look forward to welcoming you to the community!
