Event

The schedule for our Thursday lunch webinars spring 2022 is now set and we are looking forward to meeting you online. We are back with inspiring and knowledgeable webinars about vehicle and traffic safety January 27th. The main objectives with the seminars are to share knowledge about our research and other topics related to saving lives in traffic. We aim for inspiration to create new projects and boost dialogue and collaboration in our network.

This term the seminars are hosted by selected competence network leaders, research area directors and some SAFER partners. Amongst other topics of interest you´ll find driver distraction and inattention with external guests and the upcoming DDI-conference in Gothenburg in October, results from our ongoing SAFER Pre-studies and a summary of the high-profile project VIRTUAL that is about to be concluded during the spring. 

We will continue to hold the seminars exclusively online – as webinars! SAFER researchers that are included in our contact list will get personal invitations to the seminars. If you are a SAFER partner but not currently active in the network and would like to join the community, please contact Mikael von Redlich (redlich@chalmers.se) to be added to the invitation list.

Don't miss the opportunity to learn and network, a warm welcome to our webinar series during winter and spring!
