Designed Experiments: Recent Advances in Methods and Applications
DEMA2008
11 - 15 August 2008
Isaac Newton Institute
Cambridge, UK
http://www.newton.cam.ac.uk/programmes/DOE/doew02.html
DEMA2008 will bring together researchers and practitioners for the
interchange of new ideas on the design and analysis of experiments. The
workshop will emphasize both methodology and application areas and should be
of interest to scientists and engineers who use experiments, as well as to
statisticians.
This workshop will be held in the final week of a month-long research
programme at the Newton Institute and will provide a forum for the sharing
of new ideas and advances from this programme with a wider audience. The
workshop will have themes which reflect those of the research programme; in
particular, new methodology for the design of genetics and proteomics
studies, computer experiments and clinical trials; also methodology
concerned with multi-stratum designs, with multi-tiered experiments, and
with designs for nonlinear models; as well as sessions on more general
design topics. A theme day on each of these three applied topics will be
organised and participation from scientists in each field is strongly
encouraged.
Scientific Programme
The scientific programme currently includes invited presentations from over
20 leading researchers from around the world. Abstracts for contributed
talks and posters are encouraged, particularly from early career researchers
and PhD students. Abstracts should be submitted online with the conference
registration form

The Scientific Advisory Committee is
Anthony Atkinson (LSE)
Steve Gilmour (Queen Mary)
Kathryn Chaloner (University of Iowa)
Susan Lewis (University of Southampton)
David Steinberg (Tel Aviv)
Henry Wynn (London School of Economics)
Early Career Scholarships
A limited number of scholarships is available to provide a modest
contribution to conference expenses for early career researchers (PhD
students and researchers within 5 years of obtaining a PhD) who contribute a
poster or talk. These will be awarded on the basis of a submitted abstract
and a curriculum vitae. Other funding for early career researchers based in
the UK may be available from the Newton Institute's Junior Member scheme.
Workshop Venue
The workshop will be held at the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge, a
national and international visitor research institute for the mathematical
sciences. Cambridge is a historic University town, only 50 minutes from
London. Accommodation is available in Wolfson Court, just next to the Institute.
