Yee Mun Lee

I am Yee Mun Lee, a senior research fellow at the Institute for Transport Studies, University of Leeds. I am a cognitive/experimental psychologist. I obtained my BSc (Hons) in Psychology and my PhD degree in driving cognition from The University of Nottingham Malaysia in 2012 and 2016, respectively. My current research interests include investigating the interaction between automated vehicles and other road users, such as pedestrians and other drivers, by using various methods, especially experimental designs and using the Highly Immersive Kinematic Experimental Research (HIKER) pedestrian lab (https://uolds.leeds.ac.uk/facility/hiker-lab/).

I have experience and have been involved in multiple EU-funded projects. I am now a Co-lead of the User Sub-project of an EU-funded project, Hi-Drive (https://www.hi-drive.eu/), and I am also one of the SHAPE-IT project’s supervisors, where I continue my research on Human interaction with AVs in Urban Scenarios (www.shape-it.eu). I was previously the leader of the ‘Methodologies, Evaluation and Impact Assessment’ Work Package of the EU-funded project, interACT (www.interact-roadautomation.eu) and was also involved in another EU-funded project, L3Pilot (www.l3pilot.eu), where I investigated the Users’ Evaluation and Experience of a Level 3 system. Finally, I am also actively involved in the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) and regularly review journal articles in my field (i.e., Transportation Research Part F, Accident Analysis and Prevention, Human Factors, Ergonomics).
