Webinars: ‘How to conduct and publish excellent research on traffic safety’

2025-07-10

Have you ever wondered why some research papers are a pleasure to read, while others—far too many—feel like uninspired by-products of today's ‘publish or perish’ culture?

At Traffic Safety Research (TSR), our editorial team is committed to publishing the former: research that is engaging, meaningful, and impactful. As researchers and authors, we believe you share that goal. But what sets excellent research apart? And how can you plan for success from the very beginning?

To help answer these questions, the TSR is launching a new webinar series: ‘How to conduct and publish excellent research on traffic safety’. In this series, we invite leading experts in the field to share their insights, experiences, and advice on what makes research truly valuable—and how to turn it into outstanding publications.

Upcoming speaker
