With involvement in agricultural research since 2003, Françoise Kanga has been working with beneficial + entomopathogenic nematodes since 2006. Her research has been published in internationally respected scientific journals. Françoise holds an MSc in Nematology (2005) and a PhD in Applied Biological Sciences (2012) from Ghent University, Belgium. Her MSc research explored the innovative use of cover cropping and intercropping systems for the effective management of pest nematodes. During her PhD, she expanded her knowledge in Entomology and Biological Plant Protection, studying the potential of entomopathogenic nematodes as natural biocontrol agents against insect pests. With a background in agriculture, emphasizing plant production and protection, Françoise's research interests lie in exploring nematode diversity and translating her findings into practical, sustainable solutions.
