Declaration of Interest (9.12 KB)

Il dott. Bernhard Url è stato nominato Direttore esecutivo dell’EFSA a giugno del 2014. A giugno del 2019 il suo mandato è stato prorogato per altri 5 anni. Dal 1° giugno 2024 fino alla conclusione del processo di reclutamento di un nuovo direttore nel 2025 egli ricopre ad interim la funzione di direttore esecutivo. Url era arrivato all’EFSA nel giugno del 2012 per dirigere il dipartimento di Valutazione del rischio e assistenza scientifica. Di formazione medico-veterinaria, ha un’esperienza manageriale di alto livello conseguita presso organismi di sicurezza alimentare.

Prima di entrare in servizio all’Autorità, il dott. Url è stato direttore generale dell’Agenzia austriaca per la salute e la sicurezza alimentare (AGES), che rappresenta l’Austria in seno al foro consultivo dell’EFSA. Dal 2008 al marzo 2012 è stato inoltre membro del consiglio di amministrazione dell’EFSA.

Nel corso dei 10 anni trascorsi all’AGES è stato responsabile di questioni tecniche e scientifiche, compresa l’elaborazione di tempestive valutazioni del rischio e la gestione dei rischi in molteplici settori. Ciò ha implicato la realizzazione di un’efficace comunicazione del rischio durante alcune emergenze connesse alla sicurezza degli alimenti.

Prima di lavorare all’AGES è stato per cinque anni assistente universitario presso l’Istituto di igiene e tecnologia del latte dell’Università di medicina veterinaria di Vienna, per poi dedicarsi alla gestione di un laboratorio per il controllo della qualità degli alimenti dal 1993 al 2002.

Il dott. Url si è laureato presso l’Università di medicina veterinaria di Vienna nel 1987, conseguendo poi il dottorato in medicina veterinaria nel 1990. È autore di numerose pubblicazioni nel settore della medicina veterinaria, in particolare su Listeria e igiene del latte.
