Johnny Grandjean Gøgsig Jakobsen serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Humanities, specializing in historical geography, medieval history, and toponymy with dual research foci on Danish settlement-landscape history (700-1700) and Northern European church-monastery history. His academic credentials include: PhD in Historical Geography from University of Southern Denmark (2008) Cand. scient. from Roskilde University (2004) Professor Jakobsen's research examines place name relationships to historical-geographical conditions in medieval Denmark, with current projects editing Merløse herred place names for "Danmarks Stednavne". His work on Dominican Order activities in Scandinavia extends to broader analyses of monastic influence across medieval Northern Europe, integrating geographical, linguistic, and historical methodologies to reconstruct cultural landscapes. Recent publications reveal consistent thematic development: 2025 articles analyze place name evolution (Sennels, Tarm/Vorbasse), monastic spatial organization (Esrum), and Baltic missionary networks (Gulf of Finland). His interdisciplinary approach connects toponymic evidence with wetland reconstruction studies and symbolic interpretations (Leo), demonstrating how linguistic geography informs medieval societal structures across Denmark and Scandinavia.

Ioannis Panagis serves as a Data Specialist at the iCourts Centre of Excellence for International Courts and Governance within the Faculty of Law at the University of Copenhagen. Holding a PhD in Computer Engineering from the University of Patras, he bridges computational methodologies with legal scholarship through interdisciplinary research in legal network analysis and data science applications. Education: PhD in Computer Engineering, University of Patras Research Focus: Panagis specializes in social network analysis of legal citation systems, particularly within European Union law, and develops data science techniques for legal text analysis. His work integrates computer science principles with jurisprudence to examine case law structures, judicial influence patterns, and digital platform regulation. Key methodologies include network metrics, text similarity algorithms, and cloud-based processing of legal datasets. Research Evolution: His publication trajectory (2015-2023) demonstrates progression from foundational studies on EU case law citation networks toward advanced computational approaches. Early work established frameworks for multi-dimensional legal network analysis, while recent research (2023) pioneers paragraph-level citation prediction models. This evolution reflects growing sophistication in applying machine learning and natural language processing to complex legal phenomena. Professional Engagement: As Editor of Social Network Analysis and Mining since 2020, Panagis contributes to scholarly discourse in network science. His research outputs have accumulated significant citations (notably 48 for his 2017 consumer law study) and demonstrate impact through policy references and academic discussion. He remains actively affiliated with iCourts, leveraging computational approaches to advance understanding of international judicial systems.

• Danish Dialects
• Word Formation
• Language Change

Asgerd Gudiksen serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Humanities. Her research focuses on Danish dialectology, word formation, language change, and lexicography, with continuous contributions since her 1998 Ph.D. on -et derivations in Danish dialects and subsequent appointments at the Institute for Danish Dialect Research. Dr. Gudiksen earned her Ph.D. in 1998 after which she was appointed lecturer ( adjunkt ) at the Institute for Danish Dialect Research (now Department of Dialect Research), later promoted to senior lecturer ( lektor ) in 2001. Her academic trajectory remains centered at the University of Copenhagen within Nordic linguistic studies. Her research explores Danish dialect variation—particularly insular dialects—through rigorous analysis of word formation processes and historical language change. She specializes in cultural lexicography, documenting vocabulary related to food traditions (e.g., julekage ), beverages, and daily routines across dialect regions. Her methodological approach combines traditional dialectology with digital corpus linguistics, as evidenced by her work on the Ømålsordbogen dictionary project and CorDiale corpus. Recent publications (2023-2025) reveal concentrated efforts in preserving endangered dialect vocabulary through bibliographic projects, dictionary reviews, and cultural semantic studies. Her editorial leadership of Danske Talesprog and LEDA-nyt journals demonstrates commitment to advancing dialectological scholarship while analyzing how everyday lexicons reflect regional identity and sociolinguistic evolution. Scientific awards: No specific honors or fellowships were documented in the provided materials. Regarding academic mentorship and funding, the available records indicate extensive editorial and peer-review activities but do not specify Ph.D. students or grant-supported research projects. Her leadership in journal editorship and conference organization suggests active engagement in scholarly community development. Dr. Gudiksen contributes significantly to major linguistic infrastructure including the Ømålsordbogen (Dictionary of Danish Insular Dialects) and CorDiale corpus project, which digitizes historical dialect recordings and textual resources. These initiatives form critical research infrastructure for ongoing studies in Danish dialectology, supporting both academic research and public access to linguistic heritage through digital humanities approaches.

• Reconstruction of the Indo-European proto-language
• Linguistic phylogenetics
• +۷ مورد دیگر

Simon Poulsen is a PhD student and Research Fellow at the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics, Faculty of Humanities, University of Copenhagen. He has been working on his PhD project "The relationship between Indo-Iranian and Greek" since September 2020 under the supervision of Thomas Olander. He also serves as a teaching assistant for the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics (2024-2025) and previously worked as a research assistant on the "Connecting the Dots" project (2023-2024). MA in Indo-European Linguistics, University of Copenhagen (2019) BA in Indo-European Linguistics, University of Copenhagen (2016) Graduation from Odense Katedralskole (2013) Simon Poulsen's research focuses on comparative Indo-European linguistics, particularly the relationship between Indo-Iranian and Greek language branches. He works on reconstruction of the Proto-Indo-European language, linguistic phylogenetics, and examining significant innovations shared by Greek and Indo-Iranian in phonology and inflectional morphology. His work also connects linguistic findings to archaeological material cultures and prehistoric migrations. He has additional interests in language history of other language families, language variation, epigraphy, and runology. His publications demonstrate expertise in linguistic phylogenetics, etymology, and the historical relationships between language families. His work spans from Proto-Norse studies to broader Indo-European linguistic questions, with particular focus on Greek and Indo-Iranian connections. He has also published on entomological etymology and runological topics. 3rd place for best MA thesis of the Society for Indo-European Studies (2019) Simon Poulsen has taught part of the BA-course "Greek and Latin language history" and supervised BA theses. He is available to supervise exam papers or projects on Indo-European linguistics, phylogenetics, Greek or Indo-Iranian language history. His PhD project is funded by The Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics as one of the free scholarships of the Faculty of Humanities. He has been active in academic collaborations, including visiting researcher positions at Leiden University (2022) and the University of Pennsylvania (2022), and has presented at numerous conferences and workshops on Indo-European linguistics topics.
