Bismarck Ledezma Navarro

Bismarck Ledezma Navarro is a Ph.D. Candidate in Transportation Engineering in the Department of Civil Engineering and Applied Mechanics at 苹果淫院. He is a Civil Engineer and master in Highways and Transportation Engineering at the Universidad Michoacana in Mexico. His research objective is to develop a multi-criteria framework for the assessment of bicycle safety and traffic operations efficiency of all modes at intersections under different types of control. His multimodal research aims to integrate all road users (pedestrians, bicyclists,s and vehicles) and study their interactions. Particular focus is placed on cyclists and their behavior as a function of intersection control. He has experience in road safety assessment in the Pan-American corridor in its Central-American section in the Mexican Institute of Transportation, road infrastructure development work for a state organization in Mexico, and development of methodologies for the planning of cyclist infrastructure in Mexico. Currently, he is Project Manager at Transoft Solutions.

Alejandro P茅rez Villase帽or

Alejandro is a Ph.D. Candidate听with research interests in Bus Rapid Transit systems, last-mile mobility, and road safety. He holds a bachelor鈥檚 degree in civil engineering from Universidad Popular Aut贸noma del Estado de Puebla and a master鈥檚 degree in construction project management from Universidad de las Am茅ricas Puebla, both in Mexico. For seven years, he worked as program director for Civil Engineering at Instituto Tecnol贸gico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, in Mexico. His current research with IMaTS Lab focuses on the impact of transportations systems and infrastructure on wellbeing.

Annie Chang

Annie is a Ph.D. student with research interests in micro-mobility, shared mobility, and road safety. She听holds an MSc in Civil Engineering and a BA in Geography from 苹果淫院.
