David Roesti, PhD, works at Novartis Pharma AG in Stein, Switzerland, and is responsible for defining the microbial control strategy at the site and is a global subject matter expert in microbiology for the Novartis group. He is also is an elected member of the General Chapters Microbiology Expert Committee of the Unites States Pharmacopoeia 20152020 revision cycle. Marcel Goverde, PhD, runs MGP Consulting GmbH for consulting, training and project management in GMP-relevant areas with a focus on microbiology, hygiene and deviation management. He is the Swiss expert in the EDQM group for Modern Microbiological Methods since 2003, which was then integrated into Group 1 (Microbiological Methods and Statistical Analysis) in 2015.
