Liaba Khan has been named a 2025 Lifesavers Traffic Safety Scholar (TSS) and attended the Lifesavers Conference on Roadway Safety, March 9-11 in Long Beach, California. They are pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree in Public Health, Social Marketing and are one of 29 U.S. students selected through a competitive application process. The Lifesavers Conference showcases the latest research, evidence-based strategies, proven countermeasures, and promising new approaches for addressing the nation’s most pressing traffic safety issues.
This is the 10th year of the Traffic Safety Scholars program, which provides college students the opportunity to attend the Lifesavers Conference, the largest gathering of traffic safety professionals in the U.S. The Lifesavers TSS Program showcases the multitude of opportunities in traffic safety and encourages students, regardless of discipline, to pursue a career in a dynamic field that draws from a variety of disciplines including engineering, education and enforcement, communications, business, marketing, medicine, public health, political science, counseling, and more.
The Lifesavers TSS Program provides scholarships to full- and part-time undergraduate and graduate students in a variety of fields to defray the cost to attend. A letter of accreditation will be sent to the Scholar upon completion of the Traffic Safety Scholars Program Requirements.
Liaba Khan and their fellow Scholars kicked off their Lifesavers Conference experience on March 8, 2025, at the TSS Reception and Expert Panel Discussion as they learned about career opportunities from a panel of traffic safety professionals working in the public and private sectors and interacted with panelists immediately following the discussion.
From Sunday, March 9 through Tuesday, March 11, Scholars attended two plenary sessions and nine workshops from the more than 80 offered featuring leading experts in the fields of distracted and impaired driving; child passenger safety; pedestrian, bicycle and micromobility; motorcycle, teen, and aging driver safety; occupant protection; vehicle technology; law enforcement and criminal justice; public health; commercial motor vehicles; roadway design; and more.
