About Dr Goodman
Anna has an epidemiology background and specialises in the field of sustainable transport, with a particular focus on promoting walking and cycling. One of her key research interests is the potential to use primary, secondary or register-based data to evaluate population-level transport interventions, including through natural experimental designs. She also collaborates with CEDAR on various projects in modelling the health and environmental impacts of different transport scenarios.
About Dr Aldred
Rachel is Director of the Active Travel Academy and Reader in Transport at the University of Westminster. Rachel has ten yearsβ experience of researching active travel, and has made contributions to the field in areas including conceptualising and calculating active travel potential, developing methods for evaluation research, near miss studies, applying epidemiological methods to active travel injury risk, and exploring cultures of active travel, including processes of stigmatisation and marginalisation. She has published more than 25 peer-reviewed papers in these areas, and was in 2016 awarded the ESRC Prize for Outstanding Impact in Public Policy.
