Nationality | Canadian/American |

Title | Professor, Texas A&M University |
Dominique Lord is a Canadian-American scientist/engineer who is primarily known for his research work in highway safety and engineering. He is currently a Professor and holder of the A.P. and Florence Wiley Faculty Fellowship in the Zachry Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at Texas A&M University.
Lord was born in September 1969 and raised in Saint-Lambert, Quebec, a suburb of Montreal [1]. He graduated in Civil Engineering from McGill University in 1992 and went on to complete his M.A.Sc. (1994) and Ph.D. (2000) in Civil Engineering from the University of Toronto [2]. He conducted his Ph.D. research under the guidance of Dr. Ezra Hauer [3] and Dr. Bhagwant Persaud [4], a professor at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University).
Lord is a Professor and holder of the A.P. and Florence Wiley Faculty Fellowship in the Zachry Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at Texas A&M University [5]. He joined the faculty as an Assistant Professor in 2004, following a three-year tenure as an Associate Research Scientist with the Texas A&M Transportation Institute [6]. Since 2008, he has been an Associate Member of the Interuniversity Research Centre on Enterprise Networks, Logistics and Transportation (CIRRELT) at the University of Montreal [7].
Lord conducts fundamental work in highway safety. He is known to have developed the theory for characterizing the crash process from the mathematical perspective [8] and detailing the negative effects related to using data characterized by small sample sizes and low sample mean on modeling crash data with the negative binomial [9] model, the Poisson-lognormal model [10], and several crash-severity models [11]. He also advanced the knowledge in quantifying the influences of site selection and regression-to-the-mean (RTM) biases when conducting before-after studies [12]. His team has developed the negative binomial-Lindley (NB-L) model [13] for analyzing crash or any other types of data characterized with excess zero observations. Along with Dr. Soheil Sohrabi, he developed the basic framework for identifying the safest paths in route planning applications for smart phones [14] [15] [16]. A patent application is currently under review [17]. He has published more than 165 papers in peer-reviewed journals. His Google Scholar citation stands at 17,200+ with an h-index=61 [18] (as of July 2024).
Lord has been identified as one of the researchers who had the greatest impact in highway safety research [19], ranked among the top 5 most cited authors in the Journal Accident Analysis and Prevention [20], and ranked in the top 5 in accident analysis according to ScholarGPS [21]. Furthermore, the Elsevier Data Repository has ranked him in the top 1% scholars (all categories) in the world over the last five years [22] [23] [24] [25] [26]. He is the recipient of the CUTC-ARTBA New Faculty Award [27], the D. Grant Mickle Award (twice) [28], and the New Investigator Award for Non-intentional Injuries by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) [29].
Lord has been interviewed by the media about his work and important issues in highway safety [30]. In 2014, he conducted a study on the safety effects of red-light cameras in Chicago on behalf of the Chicago Tribune [31] [32] [33]. He has been a contributor to the Toronto Star [34], Radio Health Journal [35], and other print/radio media [36] [37].
Lord is married to Leah Silverman, the daughter of Peter Silverman, and they have a son named Javier [38]. He grew up in the same city as Canadian Astronaut David Saint-Jacques and were schoolmates during the late 70s [39].
