Visit from the University of Innsbruck at the Institute

On 27 January 2026, the Institute for Transport Studies welcomed Prof. Ursula Scholl‑Grissemann (BMIMI Endowed Professorship “Active Mobility: Movement in Leisure and Everyday Life”) and Dr. Elisabeth Happ (Senior Scientist) from the Department of Sport Science at the University of Innsbruck for a professional exchange.

Hosted by Assoc. Prof. Juliane Stark, the discussions focused on active mobility as well as child and youth mobility. Current research approaches and effective communication and intervention strategies were explored.

A key part of the program was the presentation of our DAVEMOS VR Lab. Thanks to a demonstration by Liting Yuan, our guests gained insights into our experimental setups and the use of virtual reality to study mobility behavior.

We thank Prof. Scholl‑Grissemann and Dr. Happ for their visit and the productive exchange, and look forward to continued collaboration in the field of sustainable, movement‑oriented mobility.
