Aïssata Deen Conte (born 4 September 2001) is a Guinean athlete.[1]

Selected to represent Guinea in the women's 100 metres race at the delayed 2020 Summer Games in Tokyo, the Guinean sports ministry had initially pulled all their athletes out of the event due the COVID-19 pandemic. However, they rescinded this decision 2 days before the opening ceremony allowing their athletes to compete.[2] Despite the upheaval she ran a personal best time of 12.43 for the 100 metres.[3]
