With a passion for bacteria, Stefania's career has taken her through a diverse range of roles in the food sector.

In 2007, she joined the world of chocolate as lab manager of microbiology at Lindt & Sprüngli, where she gained valuable experience analyzing and monitoring the environment before assuming the same role at Micarna (Migros) ten years later with a focus on meat, fish, and vegan products. It was here that Stefania implemented the qPCR for pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes, Listeria spp, Salmonella spp, Vibrio spp, and STEC.
