Epidemiologists deal with large and complex datasets that require sophisticated analysis and visualization tools. Shiny provides a platform for creating interactive dashboards that can help in the following ways:
Data Visualization: Allows real-time interaction with data, making it easier to identify trends and patterns. Data Exploration: Users can filter, sort, and manipulate data to investigate different hypotheses. Communication: Interactive dashboards can be shared with stakeholders to communicate findings effectively. Reproducibility: Analysis scripts and visualizations can be saved and rerun, ensuring consistency and reproducibility.
