Nancy Dougherty Email & Phone Number

Nancy Dougherty is a Strategic Life Sciences Communications Consultant at NVantage Consulting, LLC. Colleagues describe her as "After working closely with Nancy for the last two years at the Lyme Disease Research Foundation it is clear to me that her knowledge and sophistication about Lyme disease and the research landscape are unparalleled. Very few people understand the complexity and what is needed to advance the field the way she does. Nancy has been extremely effective using her knowledge to bridge the scientific, biotech, and patient constituencies in her role. Her strategic thinking and ability to present ideas to these diverse groups has been extraordinary. Her actions have been as effective as her words and I was pleased by her ability to lead the submission of grants that were successfully funded as well as take charge of our social media marketing, including managing an active twitter account, driving fundraising messaging, updating website and newsletter content, and running a successful online $100,000 matching campaign. Nancy has an innate ability to communicate complex biomedical messages in compelling user friendly language to convey mission, build alliances and drive fundraising. Through her strong organization, communication, and people skills, and her ability to keep projects on track, Nancy helped our team achieve our goal of establishing a clinical research center at Johns Hopkins, in the Division of Rheumatology, in April 2015. Her next mission-driven team will be fortunate to have her on board" and "It is my pleasure to recommend Nancy based on her work with the Lyme Disease Research Foundation. Nancy is a wonderful addition to the LDRF family and has brought in great ideas for fundraising and public relations. She took over the social media efforts of the foundation and has been able to double the Foundation's following within a short amount of time. She has also connected the Foundation to numerous other researchers and potential donors around New England and across the country. Nancy is also a great person to work with - she brings a great spirit and much knowledge to the group. She is a great person to work with and I am proud to call her my colleague and friend."
