Since 2017 he is Associate Editor at the Journal of Choice Modelling.Mikołaj Czajkowski is a Full Professor at the Department of Economics at the University of Warsaw (Poland). His research interests include preferences and choice modelling, non-market valuation, microeconometrics and microeconomics. He mostly focuses on econometric methods used to model consumers' preferences and a range of field applications, including environmental economics.Thijs Dekker is a Lecturer in Transport Economics at the Institute for Transport Studies at the University of Leeds (UK). His research in the field of discrete choice modelling is on the cutting edge between econometrics, micro-economics and psychology. One of the strong features of his work is the use of both classical and Bayesian estimation techniques.Klaus Glenk is a Reader of Environmental and Resource Economics at the Department of Rural Economy, Environment and Society at Scotland's Rural College (Scotland).
