🐍✨ This time it’s Python time… inside Stata!
Registered Attendees (42)
On Septembe 29, 2025, R-Ladies Rome & Rome R Users Group hosted a software integration example led by Dr. Chuck Huber, Director of Statistical Outreach at StataCorp and Adjunct Associate Professor of Biostatistics at the Texas A&M School of Public Health and at the New York University School of Global Public Health.
📊 Talk Overview
We love exploring new ways of working with data, and sometimes that means stepping outside of R to see how other tools can connect and enrich our workflows.
While our heart and mission remain with R, as data scientists and statisticians we often work in environments where multiple tools coexist. Understanding how to bridge these ecosystems — R, Python, Stata — helps us collaborate better, think more critically about methodology, and expand our problem-solving toolkit.
This event is not about selling or promoting software. It’s about learning, sharing knowledge, and keeping our community up-to-date with evolving data science practices.
