<h2><b>—— FAQ</b></h2>
<h3><b>I want to know more about the talks..</b></h3>
<p><b>Publishing and Self-service Analytics with R:</b><span> At RStudio we think about a model for data science that begins with importing and tidying data, continues with an iterative cycle of transforming, modelling, and visualizing data, and ends with communicating results. We’ve built tools and packages to help you succeed across this cycle:  RStudio and Notebooks for interactive development, the Tidyverse for making data science easier and more effective, and R Markdown, Shiny, and the new RStudio Connect (Pro) for communicating results. In this talk we’ll share the way we think about data science and our toolchain.</span></p>
<p><b>R Consortium News and RStudio Community Support: </b><span>There is a lot happening at R Consortium! We now have fifteen member organizations, including the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation which joined the Consortium this year as a Platinum member. The R Consortium’s Infrastructure Steering Committee (ISC) is currently supporting more than twenty projects working on various aspects of improving R Community infrastructure. In this talk, Joseph will provide an overview of R Consortium activities, and make suggestions on how R users can get involved. He will also talk about what RStudio is doing to support the R Consortium, and how RStudio directly supports the R Community.</span></p>
<h3><b>..and the speakers..</b></h3>
