<p>The annual <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.datasciencemelbourne.com/medascin2018/" target="_blank">Melbourne Data Science Initiative</a> (or MeDaScIn, pronounced medicine) is on again next month (24-27 September) with lots of tutorials, and the annual datathon.</p>
<p>This year there will be a <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.datasciencemelbourne.com/medascin2018/session/forecasting/" target="_blank">“Forecasting with R”</a> workshop (25 September) led my two of my Monash colleagues – George Athanasopoulos and Elena Sanina.</p>
<p>Another great tutorial will be led by Steph Kovalchik (from Tennis Australia) on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.datasciencemelbourne.com/medascin2018/session/sports-analytics-with-r/" target="_blank">sports analytics with R</a> (24 September).</p>
