Welcome to the CEDBCAM Research Institute
Welcome to the Research Institute of the Centre of Expertise and Biological Diagnostics of Cameroon (CEDBCAM-RI) website. This website serves to inform you about CEDBCAM-RI’s vision, mission, values, activities, and projects.
It is one of the channels we use to bridge the distance between our researchers, research findings, and beneficiaries of the results of our work.
We are all members of CEDBCAM-RI with various positions. We strive to implement science and research that have impacts in order to sustainably contain antimicrobial resistance while preserving antimicrobials for future generations in Cameroon and Africa.
With respect to this, CEDBCAM-RI promotes excellence and enables next-generation research by next-generation researchers. Our dynamic, ambitious, and action-oriented teams believe that their work can change the paradigm of billions of people in Africa. CEDBCAM-RI is committed to efficiently raising the voice of its team members and addressing antimicrobial resistance at the animal, human, and environmental levels.
CEDBCAM-RI is built around excellent facilities and is strategically located at the heart of Africa
