Mustapha Mokrane is currently a Project leader at DANS (Data Archiving and Networked Services), the Institute for Permanent Access to Digital Research Resources in The Netherlands. He was until June 2018 the Executive Director of the World Data System International Programme Office. Previously, he worked between 2009 and 2012 at the International Council for Science (ICSU) as Science and Information Technology Officer in charge of the coordination of ICSU's Scientific Data and Information activities and the liaison with its partners. He was also responsible for the information technology related activities within ICSU before 2003 and 2009. After moving from Algeria, his home country, he trained as molecular biologist in Marseille, France.
