ECTRI is proud to present the newly appointed Thematic Groups (TGs) Leadership Teams (2025–2027) – key drivers of our strategic goals and scientific impact in the transport research landscape.
What are ECTRI Thematic Groups?
ECTRI TGs are long-term, content-oriented working groups composed of researchers from ECTRI Members. They work on common positions and data-driven solutions for today’s most pressing transport issues through a multimodal and interdisciplinary lens.
Our TGs aim to:
Define research priorities for supporting EU policies and programmes
Increase participation in EU-funded projects
Promote scientific knowledge exchange and collaboration
At present, ECTRI has 5 Thematic Groups, each addressing vital aspects of transport research:
Mobility (Leader: Dr. Maria Morfoulaki | Rapporteurs: Julia Jarass, Dana Sitanyiova, Kristin Tovaas)
Freight & Logistics (Leader: Dr. Saskia Seidel | Rapporteurs: Norina Szander, Orestis Tsolakis, Jessica Wehner)
Economics & Policy (Leader: Elisabete Arsénio | Rapporteurs: Afroditi Anagnostopoulou, Mirko Goletz, Anu Tuominen)
Safety (Leader: Isabela Erdelean | Rapporteurs: Christophe Jallais, Ary P. Silvano, Sandra Vieira)
Traffic Management & Modelling (Leader: Stefan Seer | Rapporteurs: Orestis Giamarelos, Evangelos Mintsis, Tibor Petrov)
A warm welcome and congratulations to the new Leadership teams!
