Obama Taps NTSB's Rosekind For National Highway Traffic Safety Post

Departure Will Leave NTSB At Just Three Members

President Obama has nominated Dr. Mark R. Rosekind as the next Administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Rosekind has been a Member of the NTSB since 2010. Prior to his service on the NTSB, he was President and Chief Scientist of Alertness Solutions from 1997 to 2010.  From 1996 to 1997, Dr. Rosekind was Chief of the Aviation Operations Branch in the Flight Management and Human Factors Division with NASA Ames Research Center. 

Dr. Rosekind also served as a Research Scientist at the Ames Research Center and Team Leader for the Fatigue Countermeasures Program in the Aviation Safety Research Branch of the Flight Management and Human Factors Division from 1990 to 1997.

From 1989 to 1990, he was a Research Associate in the Department of Psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine.  From 1987 to 1989, Dr. Rosekind was a postdoctoral fellow in Sleep and Chronobiology at Brown University Medical School. Dr. Rosekind received an A.B. from Stanford University and an M.S., an M.Phil., and a Ph.D  from Yale University.

Rosekind's departure from the NTSB would leave the board at its minimum of three members needed to conduct normal business. Earlier this year, Chairperson Deborah Hersman left the board for a position with the National Safety Council.
