EHDOKKAIDEN NIMEÄMINEN Dnro 20.6.2012 859/0020/2012 Opetusministeriö Meritullinkatu 10 PL 29 00023 Valtioneuvosto Viite Ehdokkaiden nimeäminen Suomen Akatemian tieteellisten toimikuntien jäseniksi vuosiksi 2013-2015 (Dnro 1/040/2012) ESITYS Elintarviketurvallisuusvirasto Evira esittää seuraavia henkilöitä Suomen Akatemian tieteellisiin toimikuntiin. Terveyden tutkimuksen toimikunta: Evira esittää terveyden tutkimuksen toimikuntaan jäseneksi dosentti Riitta Maijalaa, jonka CV on esityksen liitteenä. Tutkimusala Dosentti Riitta Maijalan tutkimusala liittyy laajasti elintarviketuotannon turvallisuuteen kattaen sekä zoonoottisia mikrobeja että kemiallisia riskejä. Hän on yhdessä tutkimusryhmänsä kanssa kehittänyt erityisesti koko tuotantoketjuun sovellettavia kuluttajien ja eläinten terveyden edistämiseen liittyviä riskinarvioinnin menetelmiä ja tutkimustapoja. Maijalan tutkimuslähtökohta on monitieteellinen ja tutkimuskysymyksiä on lähestytty yhteistyössä eläinlääketieteen, lääketieteen, mikrobiologian, kemian, elintarviketeknologian, taloustieteen, matemaattisen malllinnuksen ja hallinnon tutkimuksen menetelmien ja tutkijoiden kanssa. Tieteenala Eläinlääketiede, elintarviketiede Tieteelliset ansiot Dosentti Maijala on kansainvälisesti tunnettu tutkija, joka on tutkimustyönsä lisäksi osallistunut lukuisiin Eurooppalaisiin yhteistyöverkostoihin. Hän on toiminut mm. Euroopan komission tiedepaneelin jäsenenä (Scientific Committee on Veterinary Measures Related to Public Health) ja Euroopan turvallisuusviranomaisen (EFSA) tiedepaneelin varapuheenjohtajana (Scientific Panel of Biological Hazards, including TSEs). Hän on julkaissut 45 vertaisarvioitua tieteellistä artikkelia sekä 57 tieteellistä lausuntoa, jotka on julkaistu indeksoidussa EFSA Journalissa. Lisäksi hän on julkaissut 84 konferenssiabstraktia, 38 raporttia ja kirja-artikkelia ja 99 yleistajuista artikkelia tutkimustiedon jakamiseksi ammattilehdissä. Hän on myös ohjannut väitöskirjoja ja muita opinnäytteitä sekä toiminut useiden kansainvälisten lehtien refereenä. Tiedehallinnon tuntemus Dosentti Maijala on toiminut useissa tutkimuksen suunnitteluun ja rahoittamiseen liittyvissä tehtävissä. Vuodesta 2006 alkaen hän on ollut Euroopan komission DG Researchin neuvoa antavan ryhmän jäsen FP7:n 2006-2013 tutkimusteemassa Food, agriculture and biotechnology.

Lisäksi hän on ollut Technical and Scientific Committee of Instituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale della Lombardia e Emilia-Romagna for the evaluation of research proposals and outputs, and the provision of advice on future programs and projects ryhmän jäsen, COST Action 920 Foodborne zoonosis: a co-ordinated food chain approach johtoryhmän jäsen sekä tieteellisen neuvoa antavan ryhmän jäsenen MED-VET-NET (EU-Network of excellence). Suomessa hän on toiminut MMM:n maatalous ja elintarviketutkimuksen tiedelautakunnan jäsenenä, Finnish Graduate School on Applied Bioscience: Bioengineering, Food, Nutrition and Environment johtokunnan jäsenenä, Eläinlääketieteellisen tiedekunnan tutkimuksen ja tieteellisten jatkotutkintojen toimikunnan jäsenenä, Helsingin yliopiston post-doc hakemusten arvioitsijana ja hänet on valittu Suomeen palattuaan Suomen eläinlääketieteen säätiön hallituksen jäseneksi. Muut mahdolliset tehtävän hoidon kannalta keskeiset ansiot Dosentti Maijalan kokemus tieteellisen tutkimuksen edistämisestä sekä tieteellisen tiedon käyttämisestä EU:n ja kansallisessa päätöksenteossa antaa vahvan pohjan myös Suomen Akatemian tieteellisen toimikunnan jäsenenä työskentelylle. EFSA:ssa Maijala vastasi koko elintarviketuotantoketjuun liittyvästä EU:n riskinarviointityöstä kattaen elintarviketurvallisuuden lisäksi myös rehuturvallisuuden, kasvien terveyden, eläinten terveyden ja hyvinvoinnin sekä ravitsemukseen liittyvän riskinarvioinnin. EFSA:n yli seitsemän sadan riippumattoman tutkijan antamien lausunnot antavat tieteellistä tukea EU:n päätöksenteon tueksi samalla osoittaen, minkälaista tutkimusta tarvitaan tulevaisuudessa. Maijala on toiminut myös monissa muissa neuvoa-antavissa tehtävissä, joista mainittakoon esim. External evaluator of the global WHO Strategy For Managing Public Health Risks At The Human- Animal Interface. 11.06.2012 Curriculum vitae Riitta Maijala Contact details Finnish Food Safety Authority (Evira) Mustialankatu 3, 00790 Helsinki Tel. +358 40 159 5812 (mobile), +358 50 526 0294 (private) Email: riitta.maijala@evira.fi (office), riitta.maijala@helsinki.fi (private) Education 04.10.1989 Lic.Vet.
