About Fleury Augustin Nsole Biteghe

Dr. Fleury A Nsole Biteghe is a lecturer under the MS in Biotechnology program at Northeastern University. He holds a PhD with specialization in Medical Biotechnology and Immunotherapy, from the University of Cape Town (UCT). As a postdoctoral scientist at Cedars Sinai hospital, he has contributed to elucidating immune resistant mechanisms causing immunotherapeutic treatment failures. He has over 12 years of academic and industrial research expertise focused on the development of antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) and photoconjugates (APCs) for photoimmunotherapeutic (PIT) application. Dr. Biteghe scientific efforts are focused on PIT, a novel light-dependent therapy utilizing the targeted binding of antibody-IR700 conjugate to a specific tumor antigen, with subsequent illumination, causing ROS production thereby inducing rapid cell death. After acquiring industry experience at Rakuten Medical and Takeda Oncology, Dr Biteghe joined Global Health Catalyst (GHC), an organization whose mission is to curb the growing cancer crisis and save millions of lives by catalyzing win-win collaborations for global health and innovation. Additionally, he is interested in developing the next generation of biotech entrepreneurs and improving biotech accessibility to underprivileged and historically disadvantaged communities, through his Nucleate activities. He has extensive experience in teaching biotechnology and enjoys translating his industry and research experience for academic application.
