We are super excited to run our first hybrid meet-up event! You will be able to join in person in central London (8 Salisbury square) or online. This will be our first hybrid event so please be patient as we figure out what works best. We are incredibly excited to have Nicola Rennie join us to talk about how to style ggplot2 graphics for accessibility. There will be time for some snacks and socialising both before and after the event.P﻿lease note that this is a hybrid event with different tickets types. Please only get an in-person ticket if you are attending in person and vice versa. Don&#x27;t attend in person if you have any COVID-19 symptoms, we would be happy to switch your tickets to a remote ticket.Meetup ProgRam18:15 - In person arrivals and socialising!18:45 - RLadies introduction19:00 - Nicola Rennie: &quot;**Styling {ggplot2} graphics for accessibility**&quot;19:45-20:00 - Questions!20:00-20.30 SocialisingABSTRACTSNicola Rennie: &quot;Using Shiny apps for dashboards in the NHS – wrangling and visualising data for tracking patient outcomes.&quot;Choosing colours, selecting fonts, and styling your plots isn&#x27;t just about making them look good, although it&#x27;s certainly something to keep in mind. It&#x27;s also about making sure any plots you create are accessible and interpretable to everyone. In this talk, I&#x27;ll discuss good practices for styling different elements of your plots, demonstrate how you implement these in {ggplot2}, and show you how defining your own theme functions can make the process smoother.
