Doaa, Resident Fellow (Nebula)

English

Doaa is an accomplished Specialist Librarian for Research Services at The British University in Egypt, where she has supported over 200 researchers in their work through tailored research support and expertise in open science, research data management, and information literacy. She also serves as the Founder & Project Lead of the Open Science Community Egypt, where she actively promotes open science practices and collaboration within Egypt’s academic community.

With a Master’s in Library and Information Science from Cairo University and her training from the McKinsey Forward Program, Doaa brings a wealth of knowledge, innovation, and leadership to her role at OLS.

Her focus as a Resident Fellow will be to improve OLS’s online communications, broadening our reach to attract more organisations and individuals to our programs — including expanding participation in Nebula, our flagship initiative.

We’re excited to have Doaa’s expertise and passion for open science on the team as we grow and connect with an even wider community.

Please join us in welcoming Doaa to the OLS Slack!
