  Leadership of a large team of scientists and PhD students conducting research related to transportation human factors, traffic psychology and transportation safety more broadly. The use of our driving simulators, land vehicle crew simulator and on-road test vehicles underpinned this research. Our outputs contributed directly to both transportation safety debate and policy development, and the academic literature. The team’s research strategy was realised through a blend of government contracts and national competitive grants. I developed research partnerships with all Victorian road and rail safety stakeholders, automotive manufacturers, the defence and mining sectors and several national aviation safety stakeholders. These industry partnerships were complemented with multiple grants from Australian Research Council (6) and the National Health & Medical Research Council (2).
