About this course

The Unix shell is a powerful tool and can help us work more efficiently. The Unix shell is both a command-line interface (CLI) and a scripting language and can helps us automate tasks so that they can be repeated multiple times, limiting the typing and therefore reducing the chance of committing errors.

Who this training is for:
  • Nurses / Doctors /anyone seeking a better understanding of the inner workings of their machine;
  • Bioinformaticians, or anyone conducting research in high-performance computing (therefore requiring knowledge of the shell);
  • Health practitioners looking to grow technically and learn to code in a practical way.
