I have ten years of experience working with plants and with traditional healers. I have experience with plants used against infectious diseases and plants used against wounds. Since 2017, I have been an assistant professor of pharmacology at the Faculty of Medicine, Pharmacy and Dentistry of the University of Bamako, Mali. After completion of my internship where I was working to evaluate the in vitro activity on Mycobacterium tuberculosis of 22 plants used in traditional treatment of tuberculosis in Mali in December 2013. As part of this protocol, we are performing TB diagnosis and identification using classical and molecular tools (fluorescent smear microscopy using LED and ordinary microscopy, solid and liquid culture, GenProbe Accuprobe, MGIT AST/SIRE drug susceptibility testing to detect early drug resistance. I wrote a thesis on the evaluation of the hepatocurative activity of a combination of 4 plants. As a holder of a Master of Science degree from Joseph Ki-ZERBO University, I am qualified in the planning, design and evaluation of projects and development processes. As a clinical pharmacologist, I have experience in the treatment of infectious and chronic diseases as well as emergency toxicology and pharmacovigilance. I have experience working with local communities and leaders. Indeed, I work with traditional healers to identify herbs used against infectious diseases, including hepatitis.
