He studied pharmacology in Kharkov in the Ukraine and in Paris. He has taught pharmacology at the School of Medicine at the University of Congo Brazzaville, Marien Ngouabi. Patrice Yengo later received a doctorate in Political Anthropology at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS), and obtained his Habilitation in anthropology in 2007. He is also the Directing Editor of the series, Rupture-Solidarité. He has taught at various universities in Paris and has also been a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies, Nantes, France.

His works in political anthropology have mainly discussed the conflict and violence that emerged in the wake of the democratization process launched by the exceptional civilian and popular gathering of 1202 delegates who convened for the National Congress of 1991. He has analyzed the degeneration of the democratic process in the Congo and the ethnicization of political conflicts. He has also offered analyses of the intimate ties between the French oil industry and military dictatorship in the Congo since the beginning of the Congolese Civil War (1993-2002).
