CSCRS launches webinar series on systems-based approach to road safety
The Collaborative Sciences Center for Road Safety (CSCRS) is launching a new bi-monthly webinar series focusing on multidisciplinary research and practices to advance transportation safety. The series will heavily feature principles and practices related to Safe Systems and the role of systems science, which is a core theme in CSCRS’s initiatives.
“The CSCRS webinar series will highlight cutting-edge research, data, tools, and resources that can be utilized to address existing and emerging road safety issues,” said Laura Sandt, director of CSCRS. “The platform will allow transportation professionals from diverse fields and the public at large to exchange knowledge in the interest of advancing road safety.”
CSCRS researcher Missy Cummings will lead the first session in the series on Wednesday, September 30, 2020, from 2-3pm ET. During this session, Dr. Cummings will discuss her research “Assessing Tesla Model 3s’ Autopilot Interactions with the Driver Monitoring System.”
