ABJ30 Members and Friends,
 
In preparation for the annual meeting of the Transportation Research Board, the Subcommittee on Health and Transportation has issued two separate calls for research.
 
The first is a Call for Papers due August 1, 2013.  It can be found here.
https://sites.google.com/site/trbhealthandtransport/trb-meetings/trb-2014/call-for-papers.
 
  For the paper we are looking for research papers using transportation and travel analysis/models in coordination with public health analysis/models to understand how transportation and land use systems affect public health outcomes.
 
The second call is for Posters only. The Call for Posters can found at https://sites.google.com/site/trbhealthandtransport/trb-meetings/trb-2014/call-for-posters
For the poster call we are looking for posters on the creative use of data in transportation and public health planning (with an emphasis on creative).
 
For more information about either of these two calls refer to the materials posted on the subcommittee's website at http://www.trbhealth.org/
