8th Annual Meeting of the
CYCLING RESEARCH BOARD
5 - 6 September 2024 Hosted by the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering, and Network, City and Landscape at ETH Zurich in partnership with the Urban Cycling Institute
Early Bird Registration until: 1 August
Conference Vision
Let's use creative and interactive sessions to shape the cycling research agenda together
We invite a variety of perspectives, especially from early career researchers. Participants are encouraged to submit work, even early stage work, that reflects a variety of inter- and transdisciplinary topics, including:
+ Creative approaches to promoting cycling
+ Innovative methodologies to study cycling
+ Using cycling to challenge/rethink assumptions about mobility
+ Critical approaches to transport technology and innovation
Our "CAMPING" Principles
The CRB Steering Committee presented the authors of the four best abstracts accepted for presentation at this year’s meeting, based on our CAMPING principles (Creative, Accessible, Mutable, Pleasurable, Inspiring, Nurturing, Ground-Breaking). On behalf of the Steering Committee, thank you to the awardees for bringing your innovative work to CRBAM23 and congratulations on this achievement!

Conference Setup
Parallel Session Formats
Not just a presentation.
Each session should foster interaction with your peers.
Group Creativity
Unleash the creativity of the audience by leveraging interactive session formats, including:
9 whys, 1-2-4-all, open space, storyboard, and others
Outdoor Activity
Use the outdoors to your advantage, especially when introducing new methodologies, or conduct a quick experiment during your session.
Semi-Structured Feedback
Think about how you want to gather feedback from your audience. Can you leverage a Menti poll or a whiteboard? How can the Q&A not only benefit you, but be interesting to the audience as well?
Our plenary sessions will be equally creative. Be inspired by activities geared towards skills development
