Our goal at Mozilla Science Lab is to maximize access to papers, data,
code, and materials so anyone can read and contribute, while also building
a community for researchers advocating from openness and collaboration. On
the Open Leadership & Engagement team we achieve this by employing
open-science events, training leaders, and developing education materials
in an effort to make research more open and accessible and help science
reach its full potential.
Stephanie Wright leads the Mozilla Science program on the Open Leadership &
Engagement team of the Mozilla Foundation, funded by the Sloan Foundation,
the Helmsley Charitable Trust, and the Siegel Family Endowment. Her team at
Mozilla focuses on hosting events such as Working Open Workshops, the
annual Global Sprint and Mozfest events, Open Leadership Trainings,
developing educational resources such as the Open Data Training Program,
and building a community of leaders through Mozilla Fellowships and other
activities. Prior to Mozilla, Stephanie worked for the University of
Washington where she developed and led the Libraries Research Data Services
Unit, served as a Senior Data Science Fellow at the UW’s eSciences
Institute, and co-authored the Librarian Outreach Kit as part of the
Community Engagement & Outreach Working Group for DataONE.
