Dr. Jürgen Neuhaus
Dr Neuhaus studied at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Hanover. From the very beginning, his focus has been on complementary veterinary medicine. He completed his scientific training and doctorate at the Institute for Bacteriology and Mycology of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Leipzig. The focus of his studies was the detection of pathogenic Clostridial species in biogas plants. He then worked as a support manager and scientific director (R&D) with several projects in the food and feed industry with a focus on probiotic products and plant-based feed. Further trainings in biogas plant biology, phytotherapy and project management are focal points of the training portfolio.

Dr. Abdou Nagy
Senior Virologist, USA
I am a molecular virologist with extensive research experience, including over five years of industrial experience in the fields of viral vectors, cell engineering, bioassays, and viral vaccines development. I have extensive expertise in: (1) virological assays development such as neutralization, HAI, ELISA, and flow cytometry use for vaccine candidates’ characterization. (2) molecular biology skills, including reverse genetics and vector engineering of influenza, NDV, adenovirus, AAV and HSV-1, under BSL2/3 facility.(3) cell line engineering using random integration and CRISPR/Cas9 (knock-in).(4) mammalian cell culture (adherent and suspension) for scaling-up viruses, particularly AAV and HSV-1. (5) bioinformatics skills, including Sanger and next-generation sequencing reactions and data analysis.
