Hello AED20 Members and Friends,
I hope everyone has enjoyed the month long TRB!
Thanks to everyone who attended our committee meeting on January 6. We had
over 140 people online at the peak of attendance, which is pretty
impressive (especially given the events happening in Washington at the same
time as our meeting). We have posted the materials from the annual meeting
and our meeting minutes to the committee website:
https://sites.google.com/site/trbabj30/meetings/2021-annual-meeting
We're continuing to work on our website, and I hope to use this more
effectively as a way to archive and share committee business moving
forward. I would especially like to thank Jinghua Xu and JD Allen for
their work on the website and Pavithra Parthasarathi for putting together
the minutes.
As far as next steps, committee members should be expecting to see drafts
of the TSP before the midyear meeting. I'll also be getting in touch with
people who volunteered for the two research working groups next week to
arrange some brainstorming meetings. We'll also be having a virtual mid
year meeting in June or July. I expect to have that scheduled next month
so you can block it on your calendar.
