The Kilts Center extends hearty congratulations to a number of The University of Chicago Booth School of Business marketing faculty for receiving named and distinguished service professorships in 2024. Dan Bartels has been named the Leon Carroll Marshall Professor of Marketing. Bartels investigates the mental representations and processes underlying consumer financial decision-making, moral psychology, and intertemporal choice. Ayelet Fishbach has been named the Eric J. Gleacher Distinguished Service Professor of Behavioral Science and Marketing. Fishbach studies social psychology, management, and consumer behavior. She is the past president of the Society for the Science of Motivation and the International Social Cognition Network, and the author of GET IT DONE: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation. Fishbach is an expert on motivation and decision-making. Her groundbreaking research on human motivation has won the Society of Experimental Social Psychology’s Best Dissertation Award and Career Trajectory Award, the Society of Consumer Psychology’s Distinguished Scientific Contribution award, and the Fulbright Educational Foundation Award. She further received the Provost’s Teaching Award from the University of Chicago. Sanjog Misra has been named the Charles H. Kellstadt Distinguished Service Professor of Marketing and Applied AI. His research focuses on the use of AI, machine learning, deep learning, and structural econometric methods to study consumer, firm, and policy decisions. In particular, his research involves building data-driven intelligent models aimed at understanding how individuals make choices and investigating private and public policies that might influence those choices. More broadly, Misra is interested in the development of scalable algorithms, calibrated on large-scale data, and the implementation of such algorithms in real world decision environments. Oleg Urminsky has been named the Theodore O. Yntema Professor of Marketing. Urminsky studies decision-making and the implications for consumers, policymakers and firms. He studies how information, incentives, goals, temporal horizons, identity, emotions and the decision environment interact to shape individual decision-making. He teaches experimental research methods for MBA and PhD students. Let's raise a toast to this outstanding group for their well-deserved recognitions in 2024!
We are so fortunate to have assembled such a group of top, world-class scholars. Must be our chicago weather!

Congratulations! How truly exciting! When I received my MBA in Marketing in 1983, we had just a handful of professors, albeit excellent ones, e.g. Harry Davis, New Product Lab, Bob Blattburg, Marketing 101, and Randy Chapman, Marketing Research. Now, thanks to Kilts and Art Middlebrooks ‘88 we have an exciting array of offerings developed by these world-class professors. Thank You! Ed Miller ‘83 Proud UC Marketing Alum.
