Dr. Mariam Matar is a visionary and a change-maker in the field of health-care and the emerging
sciences of genetics and molecular biology.
Multi-award winning International Leader, and Mentor, she is recently recognised as 'Pioneering
Arab Woman in healthcare innovation 2019' by 21st Pioneer Leadership Award in Healthcare,
Kuwait.
She is leading the scientific and healthcare community of the Arab region through a fundamental
progressive shift in thinking about genetics and preparing the stakeholders to embrace the
science of genetics, technology and tools available for empowering the Arab nations.
As the Founder and Chairperson of UAE Genetic Diseases Association, her grass root community
research on the most common genetic disorders in UAE and recommendations have resulted in five
legislations for pre-marital screening, newborn screening, preventive genetic testing in the
UAE. Since then she has founded 14 nonprofit organisations and mentored thousands of community
workers and volunteers.
Dr. Matar is instrumental in leading a core team of researchers and voluntary genetics and
molecular biology scientists who are responsible for gene mapping in the United Arab Emirates.
Her work has placed the UAE on the global map of genetic research and innovation. A global
leader, she works with leading research and academic centers as an advisor and is on the panel
of the Global Commission to End the Diagnostic Odyssey for Children with a Rare Disease.
Her strategic work in Government is still used as the foundation of several of the UAE's
national policies.
Dr. Matar was the first woman Director General in Dubai Government, heading the Community
Development Authority, UAE which undertakes to formulate social policies and deliver social
services that are in line with and contribute to the achievement of the social development
objectives of Dubai Strategic Plan 2007 – 2015, launched by H.H. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al
Maktoum on February 3rd, 2007. In 2005, Dr. Matar was the leader of the executive team that set
up social development strategies for the Dubai Strategic Plan.
She is also the first Emirati woman undersecretary in the Dubai Government with the Minister of
Health.
A believer in serving through leadership, she is on a personal mission to inspire young leaders,
especially women leaders to reach their fullest potential.
Recognized as the most powerful scientist in the UAE since 2014, she is also recognized among
the top 20 Arab scientists with the biggest contribution to humanity by the British Scientific
Community in 2016. She has received over 50 global and regional awards for her outstanding
achievements.
