Preventing injury through evidence based product design, standards & guidelines for use [ 2017 - 2020 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Julie Brown (Principal investigator)

Brief description By 2020, road traffic injuries are predicted to become the third leading contributor to the global burden of disease. My vision is to prevent road crash-related by improving the performance of protective equipment. I will work to improve access to effective child restraint systems that are easy to use correctly; enhance safe mobility of older people; determine potential for improved motorcycle safety by enhanced design of vehicle and equipment; and appropriate use of motorcycles by children.
