QNL’s Science Book Forum Explores A New Concept of Success

Doha: In the latest session of the Science Book Forum at Qatar National Library (QNL), a lecture was held discussing the idea of achieving the impossible. The topic, "If We Can Reprogram the Cell, Why Can't We Invent a New Concept of Success," was presented by Dr. Rana Dajani, a scientist specializing in molecular biology, a social entrepreneur, and an advocate for science education and women's empowerment in the Arab world.

According to Qatar News Agency, Dr. Dajani emphasized in her lecture that success is not a fixed concept but rather a renewed vision embodied in the pursuit of change and contribution to shaping a brighter future for the planet and humanity. She reviewed milestones from her diverse journey as a scientist, researcher, and social activist.

For her part, QNL's Manager of the Children and Young Adults' Section, Maram Al Mahmoud, stated that the library spares no effort in affirming that its mission goes beyond being a place for books. It is an oasis for learning, exploration, and creativity. The goal of organizing such events is to provide community members with the opportunity to engage with influential thinkers and explore innovative ideas.

The lecture is part of the activities of the Science Book Forum affiliated with the library, which aims to be an open platform for dialogue on issues of science and innovation and to encourage lifelong reading and learning, especially among youth and young adults.
