In this course we will discuss the theory behind effective graphical design, how to apply this theory to communicating health data to different audiences, and how to produce a variety of graphical types using primarily the ggplot command in the statistical analysis program R. There are two lectures per week accompanied by readings. Generally, the course content and assignments alternate weekly between theory and R programming.
