book.the-turing-way.orgMissing Data Handling — The Turing Way

This chapter was concieved and written by Zeena Shawa, a PhD student at University College London and a Turing-Roche Community Scholar.

The Community Scholar Scheme run by the Turing-Roche Partnership supports 10 PhD students to embed themselves within the partnership and develop a community project related to data science in health. Zeena developed this chapter as her project.

The availability & size of datasets are increasing. However, the completeness & quality of these datasets is not always guaranteed. Missing data can happen for many reasons. During her PhD, missing data has been a frequent issue, limiting the statistical power of her analysis.

This is not unique to just Zeena's PhD. She wrote this chapter as an open resource, from a non-expert's perspective, for any experience level. All feedback and contributions to the chapter are appreciated!

This chapter was reviewed by Vicky Hellon, Senior Research Community Manager and Tapabrata (Rohan) Chakraborty, Theme Lead, both for the Turing-Roche Partnership, with plans for others to review later on.

During our 18 September last week, Zeena live-merged her chapter after a few final edits.
