Sergiy Katrych is a materials-focused scientist-turned-regulatory professional with 11 years of experience bridging advanced research and product safety in Switzerland. Holding a PhD in Physical Chemistry from ETH Zurich and dual master’s degrees in Solid State Physics and Chemistry, he spent over a decade at leading Swiss research institutions (ETH and EPFL) before moving into product safety and regulatory affairs at Bosshard-Farben AG. He specializes in discovering and evaluating new materials while translating complex physicochemical insights into compliant, manufacturable solutions. Based in Rümlang, Zurich, Sergiy combines deep lab-based expertise with practical regulatory stewardship for industrial applications. Less obvious: his career trajectory shows a rare blend of fundamental postdoctoral research and hands-on product safety work, enabling him to anticipate regulatory challenges early in material development.
