World-leading biostatistics expert to teach Missing Data Analysis

The three-day course M9MDA Missing Data Analysis, offered within the Innovation Lectures (INNOLEC) MUNIprogramme, will take place from 16 to 18 September 2026. The venue and exact timetable will be published in the Information System.

Missing data are an unavoidable part of working with real-world datasets. If handled incorrectly, they can produce biased results and misleading conclusions. Participants will learn how to recognize missing-data mechanisms, avoid common analytical mistakes, and apply appropriate statistical methods. The course will combine lectures with practical exercises and will be taught in English.

The course will be led by Prof. Tomasz Burzykowski, an internationally renowned expert in biostatistics and statistical methodology. He is Professor of Biostatistics and Statistical Bioinformatics at Hasselt University’s Data Science Institute and Vice-President of Research at the International Drug Development Institute. From 2023 to 2024, he served as President of the International Society for Clinical Biostatistics.

The course is intended primarily for doctoral students in Mathematics and Statistics, master’s students in Applied Mathematics, and master’s students in Computational Biology and Biomedicine, as well as participants from related programmes and specializations.

The INNOLEC course takes precedence over regular classes, and participating students will be automatically excused from them.
