A Virtual Event TRB's 100th Annual Meeting

摘要

Although the world changed a great deal in 2020, transportation research remained essential. For its 100th Annual Meeting, TRB hosted an entirely virtual event-keeping the health and safety of TRB employees, contractors, and meeting attendees paramount-that took place over the month of January 2021. The world's largest transportation research conference had even greater reach this year-approximately 20,000 people logged on from across the globe to view more than 400 sessions and workshops, participate in committee meetings, and browse exhibits. Many of the sessions explored the meeting's spotlight theme-Launching a New Century of Mobility and Quality of Life-as well as the crucial topics of the COVID-19 pandemic and of racial justice and equity in transportation.
