Stéphane Hazebrouck obtained a Master degree in Biochemical Engineering and Microbiology from the National Institute of Applied Sciences (INSA) in Toulouse before earning his PhD in Microbiology from the University of Paris-Diderot VII. After a post-doctorate work at the Department of Fruit Tree Breeding and Molecular Genetics of Israel’s Agricultural Research Organization, he joined the French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment (INRAe). Among others, he designed recombinant allergens used to investigate the structure-allergenicity relationships of milk and peanut allergens. These works led to the identification of structural determinants supporting goat's milk allergy without allergy to cow's milk or the strong allergenicity of Ara h 2 and Ara h 6, the most potent allergens from peanut. He is now involved in the allergenic risk assessment of (novel) food proteins.
