I attended the Second International Online Symposium on Nutrition, Health, and Physical Activity in September, where I presented a paper titled “The Influence of Resveratrol on Insulin Homeostasis in Type 2 Diabetic Patients.” Defending this presentation allowed me to develop valuable skills in effectively communicating complex scientific concepts, responding to expert questions, and building confidence in discussing current research in the field. These competencies are essential as part of my training plan in the Doctoral Programme in Health and Psychology.

That was an opportunity to present preliminary work on the thesis. I presented the preliminary results of the systematic review and the draft of the marketing plan for the dissemination of the WHO Skin NTDs app.

The main recommendation from the participants at the symposium was to conduct a usability testing of the app in Cameroon to capture context-specific perception about the app in Cameroon.
