Marek J. Drudzel, PhD
Marek Druzdzel is a Founding Partner of BayesFusion, LLC. and a professor emeritus at the School of Computing and Information, University of Pittsburgh. He is a graduate of the Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands with a M.Sc. degrees in Computer Science and in Electrical Engineering, and holds a Ph.D. degree from Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA. His research focuses on building decision support systems that are based on sound principles of probability theory, statistics, and econometric. He has worked in the area of decision-theoretic systems for almost 40 years.

In 1995, Prof. Marek J. Druzdzel created the Decision Systems Laboratory, at the University of Pittsburgh. The research group focused on research and training in decision-analytic approaches to decision support. From the very beginning, he decided that the laboratory would be developing its own decision modeling software and it would make it available to the community. In June 2015, Marek Druzdzel and his colleague Tomek Sowinski created BayesFusion, LLC, and obtained an exclusive license for GeNIe and SMILE from the University of Pittsburgh.
