Director of Translational Medicine, Center for Innovation in Global Health Technologies
Mamoudou, a Mali-trained MD with a joint PhD from Johns Hopkins University and Mali, currently serves as an Associate Professor of Preventive Medicine (Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention), specializing in the epidemiology of infection-associated cancers and preventive strategies. He is also the Associate Director of the Havey Institute for Global Health (Havey IGH)’s Center for Global Oncology (CGO) and holds a secondary appointment in the NU Biomedical Engineering Department. In this capacity, he directs Translational Research for the Center for Innovation in Global Health Technologies (CIGHT).
With a robust foundation in infectious disease and microbiology, Mamoudou’s work focuses on the intersection of cancer and infectious diseases. He conducts research that is culturally and contextually relevant to Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), addressing locally pertinent public health questions. His primary objectives are to decipher molecular mechanisms, identify biomarkers, and develop and implement novel preventive strategies along with early diagnostic tools.
Over the past 20 years, Mamoudou has actively collaborated on major projects related to infectious diseases and infection-associated cancers across Mali, Nigeria, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Guinea, Liberia, and South Africa.
This Visiting Faculty Seminar is presented by the Microbiology, Immunology, Animal Modeling & Imaging (MIAMI) Core.
