Current Research Projects

The current research projects with which I am involved through the Center for Tropical Research include:

  • Sampling domestic and wild bird communities  across a range of agricultural and natural habitats in the Far North Province of Cameroon during critical winter season when long distance palearctic migratory birds are present to determine Avian influenza prevalence
  • Looking at the relationship between bird species, vegetation type and habitat in cocoa plantations in Southern Cameroon.
  • Collecting blood, cloacal and tracheal samples and morphometric data from both wild and domestic birds for DNA and RNA analysis and screening.
