Human Factors in Aviation and Aerospace

Joseph R. Keebler, Ph.D., is a human factors psychologist and data scientist with over 16 years of experience. His work is aimed at experimental and applied research, with an overarching goal of implementing human factors in complex, high-risk systems to increase safety and human performance. Elizabeth H. Lazzara, Ph.D., is an esteemed scientist whose research has contributed greatly to the understanding of human performance, teamwork, team training, simulation-based training, and performance measurement. Katherine A. Wilson, Ph.D., through her role at the National Transportation Safety Board, specializes in the areas of aviation safety, fatigue, human error, team training, team performance, simulation-based training, patient safety, and multicultural issues. Elizabeth L. Blickensderfer, Ph.D., has over 20 years of experience in human-machine systems research and development. This includes designing and validating numerous training programs for purposes such as teaching general aviation pilots to interpret and understand weather displays and fostering crew resource management skills in helicopter and fixed wing pilots.
