Ana Martins

PhD Student

Ana Martins is a Phd candidate in Transportation Systems at the Instituto Superior Técnico, University of Lisbon. During her PhD she expects to design a peer-to-peer autonomous car-sharing (P2P ACS) framework in urban space, simulate it and assess the impact of this service in the transportation system. She decided to pursue a research career to develop the topic of shared autonomous vehicles as she believes it has the disruptive potential to impact travel behavior and contribute for sustainable cities. Ana is part of the MIT Portugal program and a member of CERIS research group.
