About Trainer
Following study of biochemistry and PhD thesis in enzyme kinetics, Dr. Ermer started
his career in pharmaceutical analytics and industrial Quality Control in 1991. He held
various positions, including head of laboratory within the analytical drug development at Hoechst AG, Frankfurt, Germany, and from 2001 to 2005 a global function as Director of Analytical Processes and Technology. This included consultation, harmonisation, trouble-shooting and training of all industrial sites of Aventis with respect to Quality Control topics. From 2005 to 2010, he served as head of Quality Control Frankfurt Chemistry, Sanofi, Germany. Between 2010 and 2018, Dr. Ermer was head of QC Services which included a reference standard group with the mission to provide company-wide management and distribution of analytical reference standards. From 2018 to 2020, he held the responsibility as head of QC Lifecycle Management Frankfurt Chemistry, and evaluated compendial and regulatory changes, supported and coordinated analytical transfers, validation and implementation projects, in particular the establishment of a quality system and routine monitoring programme for continuous performance verification of all API-methods.
Dr. Ermer is member of the USP Expert Committee “Measurement and Data
Quality“, the Ph.Eur. Working Group “Chromatographic Separation Techniques”, and
Advisory Board member of the ECA Analytical Quality Control Group. He authored
more than 60 publications on analytical topics and is editor and author of the two
editions of the book “Method Validation in Pharmaceutical Analysis. A Guide to Best
Practice” (Wiley-VCH, 2005 and 2015).
