Patricia F. Waller Award
This award, which was established in 2004 in memory of Waller, may be conferred annually. Waller, a former Technical Activities Group Council chair and member of the Technical Activities Council, was a clinical psychologist, researcher, and advocate for policy reform in transportation safety and injury control. A winner of TRB’s Roy Crum Award, she served for 20 years as Associate Director of the University of North Carolina’s School of Public Health, was founding Director of the UNC Injury Prevention Research Center, and concluded her career as Director of the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute. The Executive Committee of TRB has authorized annual presentation of a limited number of awards for outstanding papers published by the Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board and selected through peer-review under the Technical Activities Council.
