Jeanne C. Sondi Dissake is a PhD candidate in Parasitology and Ecology at the University of Yaoundé I, Cameroon. Her research integrates molecular biology, field epidemiology, and public health, reflecting a multidisciplinary approach to understanding and controlling vector-borne diseases in sub-Saharan Africa. Her work focuses on applying advanced genomic technologies, including next-generation sequencing, to investigate the population genetics, evolution, and transmission dynamics of disease vectors. By combining laboratory-based molecular analyses with extensive field research, she seeks to generate evidence that informs more effective and sustainable vector control strategies.

Beyond her research activities, Jeanne contributes across the entire scientific process, from designing and implementing field studies to analysing data, preparing scientific manuscripts, and disseminating research findings. She is committed to translating complex scientific evidence into practical recommendations that support public health interventions and strengthen disease control programmes. Passionate about collaborative and impact-driven research, Jeanne works closely with multidisciplinary teams, fostering partnerships that bridge science, policy, and implementation. Her commitment to scientific excellence, innovation, and community-centred research underpins her efforts to advance knowledge on vector-borne diseases and contribute to improving health outcomes in endemic regions across Africa.
