2019 Patricia F. Waller Lecture: Information Systems

January 24, 2019 @ 11:00 am - 12:15 pm

Dr. Emanuel Robinson of Westat will be the keynote speaker for the 2019 Patricia F. Waller Lecture, an annual lecture honoring the legacy of Dr. Patricia Waller, the founding Director of the UNC Injury Prevention Research Center.

Dr. Robinson will present a lecture entitled, “Information Systems in Motor Vehicles: How Much Tech is Too Much?” Dr. Robinson will present an overview of his work on information systems in vehicles. This includes examining how information is presented to drivers (e.g., safety warning systems in vehicles), and on-road studies of connected and automated vehicles (e.g., cars that use radio signals to communicate on the road).
