Executive Committee
The Executive Committee serves as the operational leadership team for ERVA, responsible for administrative, programmatic, and process leadership and oversight. Executive Committee leadership will rotate annually within the PI/Co-PI team to infuse new perspectives into the components of the ERVA engine. 
“The solutions to the most complex research, technological and societal challenges cannot be accomplished entirely within one academic discipline; they require contributions from neighboring disciplines as well. ERVA is a new, independent, diverse and collaborative platform that will enable just that.”
Dorota A. Grejner-Brzezinska
ERVA Principal Investigator
University Distinguished Professor
Lowber B. Strange Endowed Chair in Engineering
Vice President for Knowledge Enterprise
The Ohio State University
“The big challenges we face as a nation require interdisciplinary approaches and engineering R&D to develop effective solutions. ERVA will serve as an intellectual lodestar to identify opportunities for maximum impact and to catalyze the use-inspired research we need for new products and services that improve the human condition.”
Anthony M. Boccanfuso
ERVA Co-Principal Investigator, UIDP President & CEO
“Theodore von Kármán, 1962 National Medal of Science recipient, is quoted as having said, ‘Scientists study the world as it is, engineers create the world that never has been.’ ERVA is an opportunity for the community to imagine the world that never has been.”

Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering - School of Engineering
University of New Mexico
“The idea that manifests into the exact solution the U.S. needs will likely come from a voice that does not have a seat at the table today. This is the reason why ERVA has representation from all 50 states and three U.S. territories.”

“ERVA will become a unique, valuable, and important component in the engineering research ecosystem that is driving forward to reach for the most aggressive and important research goals for benefit to society.”
