New preprint from me @PawarLab and @hjosullivan123 on fitting thermal performance curves in R. We created an R package to fit 24 different TPC model formulations. This is the R package I wished existed at the start of my PhD... bit.ly/2WoDc0x 
Models are fit using nonlinear least squares regression and instead of creating new pipelines, we harness the power of the #tidyverse to multiple models to multiple TPCs at same time. This makes our code more useable across workflows if you don't want to use the whole workflow...
The R package rTPC also contains helper functions such as get_start_vals() to estimate start parameters for a given model and calc_params() to calculate loads of parameters that are useful from a model fit...
