Scientific Council and Evaluation
Bruegel's scientific council advises it and its board on future research needs and provides ex post feedback and evaluation on Bruegel's research. It consists of eight individuals recognised internationally in the academic world. Its current members are Giuseppe Bertola (Chair), Sergei Guriev, Peter Neary, Lucrezia Reichlin, Dani Rodrik, Paul Seabright, Jaume Ventura, and Luigi Zingales.
A review of the impact and relevance of Bruegel's activities covering the period 2007-09 was released in 2010 by an independent review task force chaired by Ieke van den Burg.

—John Milton (1608–1674)
