EuropaBio, the European Association for Bioindustries, has appointed Nathalie Moll as Secretary General. She will take over from Willy De Greef, who has led the association since June 2008.

After graduating with Honours in Biochemistry and Biotechnology from St Andrew’s University, Scotland, Moll - who is of joint Italian/British nationality - worked in the biotechnology and food policy area for the European Crop Protection Association and then for the Italian National Biotech Association and Dompe’ Farmaceutici S.p.A, dealing with the implementation of EU biotech legislation at National level.

She has already spent almost a decade representing the European Biotechnology Industry through EuropaBio.

In the course of her career, Moll has done much to improve awareness of the importance and benefits of biotechnology for Europeans and has worked, together with regulators and stakeholders, towards developing a more supportive legislative framework for the industry.
