Mr. Inoussa Ilboudo | Stem Cell Research | Best Researcher Award

Nazi Boni University | Burkina Faso

Dr. Inoussa Ilboudo is an expert in food safety and post-harvest management of plant production, currently pursuing a doctoral thesis at Nazi Boni University (UNB) with a focus on food safety. He holds a master’s degree in post-harvest management of plant production from Joseph Ki-Zerbo University (UJKZ) and a license in applied human nutrition from IST. His professional experience spans food quality control, contaminant analysis, and agricultural product safety. Dr. Ilboudo has received specialized training in food contaminant analysis with Laval University (Canada), mycotoxin quantification using LC-MS/MS in Morocco, heavy metal analysis by atomic absorption spectrometry, GC-MS application in Pretoria, and chromatographic methods at the University of Helsinki. As Head of the Contaminants and Food Additives Department, he has led initiatives such as the implementation of peanut standards for infant flours and contributed to national food safety projects like ReCMA-BF. A member of the American Chemical Society, Dr. Ilboudo is also a certified master trainer under the GIZ/MOVE program and teaches quality control of fruits and vegetables in academic institutions. His research interests center on the assessment of food contaminants, post-harvest loss reduction, and the development of safer food systems in West Africa.
