The newly created Research Advisory Group of the Australian Institute for Motor Sport Safety (AIMSS) held its first meeting in Sydney last week with AIMSS Board Chairman and Research Advisory Group Chairman, Dr Michael Henderson, welcoming the occasion as a significant step for the Institute.

“Together with the launch of AIMSS in March, at which Professor Sid Watkins and Sir Jackie Stewart applauded the initiative, this first Research Advisory Group meeting was a milestone in work on improving safety since I first became involved in motor sport in Australia.

“Having long recognised the benefits of research and the value of having a sound database of statistical information on which to base decisions that can enhance safety on the roads and in motor sport, it was a major advance to be able to meet and consider the project areas AIMSS may be able to tackle in the short, medium and longer-term.

“I was delighted that we were able to draw together such an eminent group with outstanding qualifications and experience across a wide range of areas within the sport and beyond to serve on the AIMSS Research Advisory Group. Consisting of Professor Rod Troutbeck, Tony Caldersmith, Robert Chadwick, Dr Tom Gibson, Richard Hollway and Ed Ordynski, these members all bring immense ability to the table and it was a privilege to act as Chairman as we considered a wide range of suggested areas for research and action.
