Brilliant scientists, great presentations & fruitful discussions!

One more Young Researchers’ Seminar successfully held. This year’s event took place in Lisbon, Portugal, hosted by the National Laboratory for Civil Engineering.

It gathered 33 young researchers, 12 tutors, Steering and Organising Committee’ members, for an companionable exercise of presenting scientific work, while making valuable connections, exchange ideas, and potentially uncovering new career opportunities.

Congratulations to all the researchers for their commitment and determination to improve their written and presentation skills. A special acknowledgement goes to the three best papers and presentations:

  • Daniel Sander, BASt, “Detecting latent relations within in-depth accident data using network graphs”
  • Kajsa Emanuelsson Weibull, VTI, “Differences in drivers’ attitudes and behavior towards ambulances and police vehicles”
  • Gabriel Stephan Himmelbauer, University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria, “Conceptual design and evaluation of sensor technology for automatic uncoupling of railroad wagons” 

Final thanks go to the tutors, to the Steering and Organising Committee, to the supporting organisations FERSI, FEHRL, EURNEX and HUMANIST and ECTRI and their respective Members that contributed to the success of this Seminar. 

Photo gallery and key note presentations will be available soon, on the YRS website.
