Ange D.M. Egname Dockon is a Master’s student in the Department of Animal Biology and Physiology at the University of Yaoundé I. Her research interests lie at the interface of parasitology, clinical research, and public health, with a particular focus on neglected tropical diseases and their management in vulnerable patient populations. Her current research investigates the impact of haemodialysis on the intensity of Loa loa infection among patients visiting the Regional Haemodialysis Centre of Ebolowa in southern Cameroon. By exploring whether haemodialysis, a life-saving renal replacement therapy, can inadvertently reduce the burden of Loa loa, her work seeks to improve understanding of loiasis in individuals living with chronic kidney disease, an area that remains largely unexplored despite the disease’s public health importance in Central and West Africa. Through this research, Ange is developing expertise in clinical parasitology, microscopy-based diagnostic techniques, hospital-based epidemiological research, and clinical data collection and analysis. She is particularly interested in generating evidence that can inform the clinical management of neglected tropical diseases and improve healthcare outcomes for affected populations. Driven by a passion for translational research, Ange is committed to bridging laboratory science and clinical practice to support innovative approaches for the diagnosis, treatment, and control of neglected tropical diseases.
