Henry Liu serves as the Director for the Center for Connected and Automated Transportation (CCAT), the USDOT Region 5 University Transportation Center. Dr. Liu is also a Professor in the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at the University of Michigan and a Research Professor for the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI). From July 2017 to August 2019, Dr. Liu took a leave of absence from the University of Michigan and served as Chief Scientist on Smart Transportation for DiDi Chuxing in China, one of the leading mobility service providers in the world. While he was with DiDi, he established and led the Urban Transportation Business Unit. Dr. Liu received his Ph.D. degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the University of Wisconsin at Madison in 2000 and his Bachelor’s degree in Automotive Engineering from Tsinghua University (China) in 1993. Dr. Liu’s research interests focus on transportation network monitoring, modeling, and control, as well as mobility and safety applications with connected and automated vehicles. On these topics, he has published more than 100 refereed journal articles. Dr. Liu is the managing editor of the Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems and an editor of Transportation Research Part C.

Arno Eichberger studied Mechanical Engineering at the University of Technology Graz, where he graduated 1995. He received a doctor’s degree in technical sciences in 1998 with distinction. From 1998 to 2007 Eichberger was employed at MAGNA STEYR and dealt with different aspects of active and passive safety. Since 2007, he is employed at the Institute of Automotive Engineering (University of Technology Graz) as vice-director of the Institute and head of the research area Vehicle Dynamics. His research interests include development and testing of automated driving, human-machine interaction, vehicle dynamics control and suspension development. Since 2012 he is Associate Professor in Automotive Engineering.

David LeBlanc is an associate research scientist as well as head of the
Engineering Systems Group at UMTRI. His research focuses on the
automatic and human control of motor vehicles, particularly requirements
and assessments of ADAS and connected-automated driving systems.
Dave has led many projects for government and industry sponsors, and
his research group includes UMTRI’s instrumentation and naturalistic
database teams. He holds a Ph.D. in aerospace engineering from the
University of Michigan and prior to UMTRI worked in the automotive and
aerospace industries.

Bowen Weng is a research engineer at Transportation Research Center
(TRC) Inc. under assignment to National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA). His recent work mainly focused on developing
analytical metrics and engineering capabilities for the safety evaluation of
Automated Driving Systems (ADS).

Jeffrey Wishart is a Managing Engineer at the Test and Engineering Center of Exponent, Inc. as well as Adjunct Professor in Automotive Systems of the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University. Dr. Wishart conducts research and development in the areas of energy and advanced transportation, including advanced powertrains, connected and automated vehicles, electric vehicle supply equipment, energy storage systems, and micro-mobility applications. Dr. Wishart is also the Chair of the Verification and Validation (V&V) Task Force under the On-Road Automated Driving (ORAD) SAE committee that is establishing standards for automated vehicles. A Canadian, Dr. Wishart has a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the Institute for Integrated Energy Systems at the University of Victoria, an M.Sc. in Engineering Physics from the University of Saskatchewan, and a B.Sc. in Engineering Physics (Mechanical Engineering Minor) from the University of British Columbia.
