    <p><span class="event-description">The presence of missing values
        complicates analyses. In design of experiments, missing values
        are particularly problematic when constructing optimal designs,
        as it is not known which values are missing at the design stage.
        When data are missing at random it is possible to incorporate
        this information into the optimality criterion that is used to
        find designs. However, when data are not missing at random this
        framework can lead to inefficient designs. In this talk the
        areas of missing data and optimal design are briefly reviewed.
        Some of the specific challenges are then considered when finding
        optimal designs for linear regression models with not missing at
        random values present.</span></p>
