SUMMARY: This notice announces the
Fourteenth Public Meeting of members
of the Crash Injury Research and
Engineering Network. CIREN is a
collaborative effort to conduct research
on crashes and injuries at eight Level 1
Trauma Centers linked by a computer
network. Researchers can review data
and share expertise, which could lead to
a better understanding of crash injury
mechanisms and the design of safer
vehicles.
DATE AND TIME: The meeting is
scheduled from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on
Tuesday, March 28, 2006.
ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held in
Room 6200–04 of the U.S. Department

frontal collisions; the fifth public
meeting on June 21, 2001, on CIREN
outreach efforts; the sixth public

with a topic of injuries involving sport
utility vehicles; the seventh public
meeting on December 6, 2001, with a
topic of age related injuries (elderly and
children); the eighth public meeting on
April 25, 2002, with a topic of head and
traumatic brain injuries; the ninth
public meeting on August 22, 2002
(held at Harborview Injury Prevention
and Research Center in Seattle,
Washington), with presentations
highlighting the various research
specialties of the Centers; the tenth
public meeting on December 5, 2002,
with a topic of occult injuries; the
eleventh public meeting on April 3,
2003, with papers on the injuries
sustained in crashes where vehicles are
mismatched in terms of size or weight;
the twelfth public meeting on December
5, 2003 (held at the University of
Alabama at Birmingham), with
presentations on various research
specialties of the Centers; and the
thirteenth public meeting on November
4, 2004 (held at the University of
Maryland/National Study Center), with
presentations on various research
specialties. Presentations from these
meetings are available through the
NHTSA Web site.
Public meetings were suspended in
2005 due to the recompetition of the
funding for the CIREN cooperative
agreements. The recompetition was
announced in December 2004, and
awards were made in June 2005.
NHTSA plans to continue holding
CIREN meetings on a regular basis to
disseminate CIREN information to
interested parties. This is the fourteenth
such meeting. The CIREN Centers will
be presenting papers on a variety of
research topics.
Should it be necessary to cancel the
meeting due to inclement weather or to
any other emergencies, a decision to
cancel will be made as soon as possible
and posted immediately on NHTSA’s
Web site https://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/
nhtsa/announce/meetings/. If you do
not have access to the Web site, you
may call or e-mail the contacts listed in
this announcement and leave your
telephone number or e-mail address.
You will be contacted only if the
meeting is postponed or canceled.
