R is going away??!?!? The tidyverse, Rstudio, and modern ecosystems like bioconductor have led to a huge boom in the use of R in life sciences, to the point that I teach more Python than R. I reckon R is now the language of choice if you are starting out in the life sciences/biology. RLadies chapters are sprouting up like nobody's business all over the world! And they don't even know about the big projects that connect R and Python, like Rstudio's reticulate.
