Daniele SOHIER (PhD) daniele.sohier@thermofisher.com Senior Manager – Gobal Scientific Affairs – Food Protection

ThermoFisher Scientific

After one-year post-doc fellow at INRA (FR) in 1999, Daniele spent 16 years at ADRIA Food Technology Institute (FR) to develop first the R&D facilities and service activities in molecular biology. She took the lead of the food safety and quality team in 2003. ADRIA has become one of the most important expert laboratories running method validation studies in Europe. She provided the first protocols to harmonize validation studies to fit with both ISO 16140-2 and AOAC requirements. Beside certification projects for companies providing alternative methods, the laboratory has increased other service activities dedicated to food producers such as challenge test studies and genotyping for source tracking, as well as collaborative R&D programs. In August 2016, Daniele joined Bruker (DE) to coordinate the development in industrial microbiology. She conducted the first ISO 16140-part 6 validation study together with MicroVal and obtained the first Official Method Analysis by AOAC International for a mass spectrometry solution in food microbiology. The work on a mass spectrometry solution dedicated to the agri/food microbiology market was honored by AOAC International with two awards, Award of the Method of The Year 2018 and Award of the Publication of the Year 2019. She joined ThermoFisher (UK) in November 2019 to coordinate the scientific interaction with research scientists, laboratory and food safety managers, as well as the relationship with food safety authorities and certification bodies. She is responsible for developing the global food certification strategies and ensuring the recognition of Thermofisher solutions in food protection. Daniele is strongly involved in international standardization with ISO and AOAC and is used to convene working groups or projects such as the development of Classification of Food Categories Table within AOAC ISPAM, the ISO 16140-parts 1 and 7 in the method validation framework, the ISO 20976-part 1 on challenge-tests in food microbiology, and more recently the AOAC working group on Molecular Applications for Food Authenticity/Fraud Program. Daniele has certainly coordinated more than 100 validation studies of alternative methods according to the ISO 16140 standard and AOAC Guidelines. Daniele has also been involved in more than 20 national and European R&D programs. She was the President of IAFP Europe in 2018 and has organized several international symposia and conferences. She has published more than 35 publications and run more than 70 international communications. She is a member of the Board of Director of AOAC International.

Thanks to these various professional experiences and roles, Daniele has developed cross-geographical and functional leadership , as well as communication skills, ensuring successful program coordination.
