I hold a Thesis of Doctorat de 3 eme Cycle in Biochemistry, Option Nutrition, titled A Study of the Bioavailability of Iron and some nutrients intakes of main weaning Foods eaten in Yaoundé (Center), Adamaoua ( North), defended in November 2000. Since December 2001 I am Lecturer at the University of Douala, Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Science.

As Lecturer, I have 50% of my time for teaching activities and 50% for research and Master’s student supervision. Academic activities are based on teaching of Structural Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Food and Nutrition Sciences to Graduate and Post graduate students.

Research activities are mostly the assessment of chemical composition of main Cameroon traditional household and complementary foods for the optimal use of our local foodstuffs in balanced composite meals. The final goal is to reduce the high prevalence of the burden of malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies in Cameroon.

I have participated at many international Conferences and courses on Food Science and Nutrition, and need more supportive collaboration for research and training
