Afsatou Ndama Traoré holds an MSc and a PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Johannesburg after undergraduate studies at the University Joseph Fourier (Grenoble I) in France. Her PhD research focused on the effect of iron overload on co-infection with HIV and TB – in vitro. This was a continuity of a large broader study, which had several phases looking at factors contributing to HIV infectivity as well as the development of an effective vaccine. Her research interest is the study of immunological responses to plants and infections.
