Cases of coronavirus (ongoing)

Introduction
A colleague of mine (hey đŸ‘‹ @lost_efano) showed me this R package coronavirus which collects data about the virus.
I simply couldn’t resist to plot some of the data.
Animating the dynamics of training a Poincaré map
Mar 1, 2020
Preface
Last Friday, I came across an interesting method called “PoincarĂ© map” to visualize the relationship of cells in single cell RNA-seq data using hyperbolic space. Check this page for an intuitive representation of what hyperbolic space is. During the weekend, I had the chance to experiment with this method to the data set I used in the scRNA-seq workflow. This article is not about finding the right parameters, even if it might help doing so. Instead, it is about (1) finally getting a chance to make animated plots, and (2) visualize what happens during the training process of the PoincarĂ© map.
Calculate EC50 and plot dose response curve
Feb 23, 2020
Suppose you performed an experiment where you treated cells with different doses of a certain drug and measured how many cells are left alive after a given delay. Often, people estimate the potency of a drug by its EC50 value, the concentration at which we observe half-maximal response.
League of Legends players by rank - a simple bar chart with D3.js
Sep 3, 2019
Still experimenting with D3.js, this time I wanted to make a simple bar chart. Since it’s always nice to show actual, informative data, I decided to reproduce the distribution of players in the different ranks in League of Legends as shown on this website: https://www.esportstales.com/league-of-legends/rank-distribution-percentage-of-players-by-tier.
Plotting German school holidays with D3.js
Sep 1, 2019
Even though I mainly work with R, I wanted to learn some D3.js and recently had the idea to visualize German school holidays by region for the year 2018-19. Don’t ask me why I chose the school holidays, I don’t know either.
