How busy are Chinese doctors? They are constantly on the go between departments, outpatient clinics, and operating rooms. During the pandemic, their workload has only increased, and they wish they could make every minute count.But there’s still the pressure of research!Without research results, graduation, promotions, and evaluations will have to wait indefinitely.Thus, they can only race against time to conduct research, sacrificing evenings and weekends, suffering from panda eyes, and gradually losing their hair. Oh, it’s just too much to bear.Yet, there’s always a small group of doctors who seem to have endless time! You can almost see them seeing patients every day! On weekends, their social media is filled with romantic videos, and they can publish several SCI papers in a year?How come these frontline doctors manage to balance clinical work, research, and life, and achieve results so quickly? Their secret—Python!How versatile is it? Literature and data scraping, automated data processing, statistical analysis, visualization, machine learning… Python can handle it all!And even if your English is poor, your math skills are rusty, and you have zero programming background, you can still learn Python. After all, even elementary school students are starting to learn it now.Don’t believe it? Come check out the free live session by Dingxiang Research!Dingxiang Research has invited Professor Tang Jiamei from Kyungpook National University in South Korea, who has ten years of programming experience, to present:4 Major Python Features That Boost Research Efficiency!

What Will the Live Session Cover?
1. Mass Data Auto-Reading and Sorting, Say Goodbye to Repetitive Work!
In clinical research, we often need to handle massive amounts of data, which is usually compiled by many different people. Therefore, we have many pieces of raw data that need to be merged.If you rely on manually copying and pasting each piece of data, it’s truly a waste of time! Learning Python can help you automate the sorting of bulk data effortlessly, so come learn in the live session!
2. How to Efficiently Clean Data, Removing or Replacing Duplicates and Missing Values!
After working hard to compile a raw data set, you may find too many issues when you actually want to use it. Some data entries are duplicated, some are missing, and different people have different habits and expressions for missing values. Some data indicators are in decimals, while others are in the hundreds, or just noted as <1000; it’s impossible to conduct further analysis.Manually checking and cleaning this data is as laborious as moving a mountain, but with Python, just a few lines of code can organize the data as you wish! Isn’t that amazing? Come learn in the live session!
3. Let Python Help You Automatically Read and Sort Electronic Medical Record Data?
Surely everyone is fed up with the hospital’s electronic medical record system? In the past, organizing medical records meant spending a lot of time entering each case’s data into Excel. It’s time-consuming, labor-intensive, and tedious, and due to different work habits, the data entered may be inconsistent or erroneous, leading to even more rework!Come to the live session to see how the teacher will show you how to use Python to handle this tedious and time-consuming data entry work!4. How to Make the Computer Automatically Scrape Literature in Batches? No Need to Download Manually!In research, you inevitably need to read a lot of literature, especially if you are doing a meta-analysis or writing a review; you need to download a vast amount of literature. How do ordinary people do it? They search one by one in different literature databases and download them one by one, waiting for the web pages to load slowly.But what do people who know Python do? They give Python the key commands to automatically scrape the target literature and download it to a specified location, just like the diligent little snail in Plants vs. Zombies. Isn’t that delightful!
