Lisa Soder serves as Senior Policy Researcher and Acting Head of Technical AI Governance at Interface, a leading European tech policy think tank, and is an incoming Visiting Research Fellow at Stanford University's Intelligent Systems Laboratory within the School of Engineering. She holds a Master's degree from the London School of Economics focusing on comparative transatlantic approaches to technology regulation and competition law, and brings prior experience from the Centre for the Governance of AI, Boston Consulting Group, and global health NGO work in Ethiopia. Her research centers on establishing AI accountability infrastructures with particular emphasis on developing third-party auditing ecosystems and bridging technical and regulatory aspects of AI governance. She has developed a taxonomy for Technical AI Governance organized along technical targets (Data, Compute, Algorithms and Models, Deployment) and governance capacities (Assessment, Access, Verification, Security, Operationalization, Ecosystem Monitoring). Her work examines open problems across these dimensions, highlighting the critical need for technical tools to support effective AI governance. Analysis of her publications reveals a strong focus on practical implementation challenges in AI regulation, particularly regarding the EU AI Act's provisions for general-purpose AI systems. Her research consistently addresses the gap between policy aspirations and technical capabilities, with particular attention to verification mechanisms, risk assessment frameworks, and the development of technical infrastructure necessary for oversight. She advocates for closer collaboration between technical experts and policymakers to ensure governance mechanisms are both feasible and effective. Lisa has been actively engaged in high-level policy discussions, participating in events such as the AI Action Summit in Paris, Sino-German Track 2 Dialogues on AI governance, and expert briefings on frontier AI systems. Her upcoming visiting research fellowship at Stanford University represents a formal academic affiliation that complements her policy-focused work at Interface.
