ProtAct-Us

From long term consequences of road crashes

ProtAct-Us aims at protecting all road user groups from serious injury and long-term physical, cognitive and mental health consequences of road crashes, through innovatively interlinked research action between medical and engineering tools.

Main Goals and Challenges:

  • Medical data correlation, standardization and classification of long-term physical, cognitive and mental health consequences of road crashes.
  • Robust and reliable medical, epidemiological and engineering tools like upgraded HBMs, and physical as well as virtual assessment methods for upper and lower extremities, head-neck-and-face, allowing for effective countermeasure development for all road users.
  • Reduction of long-term consequences and related socio-economic cost of road crash related injuries for all road users.
