MPC Researchers Present Wide Variety of Work at 2021 TRBPosted: Apr 27, 2021  Using virtual meeting technology, staff and students from MPC universities attended and presented more than 40 research Posters and Presentations at the virtual annual meeting of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) in January.
Thousands of transportation professionals from all over the world participated in the program that covered all transportation modes, addressing topics of interest to policymakers, administrators, practitioners, researchers, technical experts, and representatives of government, industry, and academic institutions. The spotlight theme for the meeting was, "Launching a New Century of Mobility and Quality of Life."
