Accessing the ISGW cloud environment

Parts of the interactive practicals will take place on the ISGW cloud environment. All that is required to access the cloud environment is a modern web browser. Students will have access to both RStudio and a command line terminal. There are more detailed instructions available.

Using the ISGW Forum

The ISGW Forum is a message board that has been setup for discussion of all topics related to behavior genetics. It has topic categories for general BG questions. Everybody, whether attending the Workshop or not, is invited to join the forum to discuss behavior genetic topics.There is a brief introduction to using the forum.

Pre-recorded lectures

Pre-recorded lectures are available on the ISGW YouTube channel. See each day of the syllabus for a list of which videos to watch ahead of each daily session. If for any reason you are not able to access the videos on YouTube, please contact Jeff.Lessem@colorado.edu as soon as possible.

Daily live sessions on Zoom

Students registered for the course will join daily live sessions to work on the interactive practicals. You will need to have Zoom installed, or it can be used through a web browser. It is not necessary to have a Zoom account to participate in the live sessions. Registered students will be emailed links for the Zoom sessions shortly before the course starts.
