Excellent to see another WISC student presenting their research at a top conference. This time, Zakiyya was presenting here research on commuting and wellbeing at the International Conference on Transport and Health!
Had a brilliant time presenting at ICTH 2019 last week at our session titled "Commuting to Work: Is it Working?" alongside Runing Ye, Anthony Walsh and Marco Garrido-Cumbrera. Also, Melbourne, not a bad conference location, not bad at all 🙌🏼 #ICTH2019 @TPHLink_IPATH

Another student presenting their work at a top conference! @N_Hengesbach has just presented her poster on critical air quality data visualisation at @ieeevis in Vancouver!
Had some really good discussions at the poster session at #ieeevis yesterday. My poster shows my work around crowdsourced air quality data, their limitations and why we need to consider these in visualisations (hint: empowerment).

Had a great week at #TNOCsummit @TNatureOfCities so many great talks, workshops and trips crammed into 4 days, I think I need a holiday to recover. I’ve never been to a conference where I got to feed a goat in an #urban #greenspace before!
