Donna brings with her over 20 years of experience in science and data publishing. Her expertise spans community and member engagement, membership program development, strategic partnerships, and fundraising. Before joining STM, Donna was instrumental at Dryad, a research data publisher, where she laid the groundwork for their institutional membership program and collaborated with funders and researchers on their strategic initiatives.<\/span><\/p>\n
