Iliana Ivanova, Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, said:
"I welcome Torsten Persson to the Scientific Council of the European Research Council and congratulate Gerd Gigerenzer and Milena Žic Fuchs for the renewal of their term. I also thank the outgoing Vice-President Eveline Crone for her important contribution to the ERC work. The eminent scientists and scholars on the ERC’s governing body contribute to the Council’s pivotal role in supporting Europe’s excellent frontier research that in turn often spurs innovation".
