"Research Software Development Best Practices"

Russell Davidson
Research Programmer, CNRG 

Joe Leigh
Associate Director of IT Solutions, CNRG 

Do you write code at the IGB? Do you work with someone who does? Join us for lunch as we discuss some of our best practices for developing research software – and how to come up with your own. We'll explore development workflows, code review, AI tool use, and more. It doesn't matter what you're working on or what language you use; all are welcome, and no technical knowledge is necessary!
