Only winners of the "Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences", not real winners of the nobel prize.

I would much rather ETHZ got Mr. Terence Tao to come than these 2 come to UZH. We have enough economists as is.

All the "brain drain due to Trump fascism" European politicians keep promising us will end up being a bunch of social science people.
