Basic research. We set own priorities and thereby provide evidence for the transition towards sustainable transport and mobility.

We understand basic research as research on topics which we determine ourselves. Our research is published in journals with high scientific quality, i.e. including peer review and impact factor. We select our topics with the aim to obtain findings for a successful transformation of transport. Our findings should be directly applicable to decision-makers in business, administration and politics.
