Dr. Rémy K. Bationo is a distinguished chemist and research scientist at the National Center for Scientific and Technological Research, Institute of Applied Sciences and Technologies (CNRST-IRSAT), Burkina Faso, specializing in organic chemistry and phytochemistry. His research focuses on the chemical characterization, antioxidant profiling, and biological evaluation of medicinal and aromatic plants native to West Africa, emphasizing the identification of bioactive compounds with pharmacological, nutritional, and industrial potential. Over the years, he has made significant contributions to natural product chemistry through advanced analytical techniques such as HPLC-MS, HPTLC, and NMR spectroscopy to elucidate the structures and antioxidant properties of essential oils, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and phenolic acids. Dr. Bationo has led and collaborated on several national research projects funded by FONRID, including the development of therapeutic and nutraceutical products and the establishment of a national herbarium and chemical library of medicinal plants. His work has earned recognition through numerous publications in high-impact international journals such as Heliyon, Pharmacology & Pharmacy, and Chemistry of Natural Compounds, reflecting his growing influence in the field. With an impressive research footprint comprising 154 citations, an h-index of 5, and an i10-index of 3, Dr. Bationo continues to advance scientific understanding and promote the valorization of African biodiversity. A recipient of the prestigious One Planet Fellowship (AWARD) and an active member of the West African Chemical Society (SOACHIM), he demonstrates exceptional leadership and commitment to developing sustainable, health-oriented innovations that bridge chemistry, environment, and community well-being.
