Prof Montibeller main research focus is on behavioural issues in risk and decision analysis. This encompasses the study of cognitive and motivational biases in the elicitation of judgments; the development of debiasing tools against cognitive and motivational biases; and the design of decision aiding methods that can address the inherent cognitive limitations of decision makers and experts in providing judgments and interacting with decision support tools.

His main areas of applications are on security decision analysis and health risk management. This encompasses the development of decision support systems to help with the prioritization of bio-security threats; the design of assessment tools to evaluate and improve health capabilities and reduce vulnerabilities; and the development of frameworks to support the allocation of scarce resources for enhanced security.

His research has been published in journals such as Risk Analysis, European Journal of Operational Research, Decision Support Systems, INFORMS Decision Analysis, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Technological Forecasting & Social Change, OMEGA, among others. The quality of his research has been recognised by best publications awards from the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (Informs), the Society for Risk Analysis, and the International Society on Multi-Criteria Decision Making.

He has been invited to co-edit several special issues on leading topics in decision sciences by journals such as Risk Analysis (on spatial risk analysis), European Journal of Operational Research (on problem structuring), INFORMS Decision Analysis (on health decision analysis), and EURO Journal on Decision Processes (on behavioural issues in supported decisions).

Prof Montibeller is Associate Editor of the鈥疘NFORMS Decision Analysis journal and has served as area editor of the鈥疛ournal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis. He is on the editorial boards of the EURO Journal on Decision Processes and Futures & Foresight Science journals.
