Andrew Weir is a Professor of English Language and Linguistics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Department of Language and Literature (ISL). He holds positions in the Faculty of Humanities and serves on NTNU's Language Policy Committee and the MLSPRÅK teacher training committee. His academic journey includes an MA in Linguistics from the University of Edinburgh (2008), an MA in Syntax from University College London (2009), and a PhD in Linguistics from the University of Massachusetts Amherst (2014). Before NTNU, he was a postdoctoral researcher at Ghent University's English department. Weir specializes in generative syntax and semantics, focusing on ellipsis (particularly clausal ellipsis) and interfaces between syntax, semantics, and phonology. He studies register variation in 'reduced written registers' (diaries, text messages) and dialectal features of Scottish English. As co-leader of the ForMAAL research group, he explores formal, mental, and acquisition-based approaches to language. His teaching spans theoretical linguistics courses including syntax, semantics, and linguistic theories. Weir's research emphasizes syntax-semantics interactions, dialectal syntax, and the role of prosody in ellipsis. He has supervised numerous student theses and actively participates in academic outreach, including lectures on Scots language history and generative syntax methodologies.

Ragnhild Eik is an Associate Professor of Nordic Linguistics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), based in the Department of Language and Literature within the Faculty of Humanities. She is affiliated with the AcqVA research group and the GenVAC project, focusing on grammatical gender variation in Norwegian dialects. Her research explores syntax, morphology, dialectal variation, and language change, particularly in Norwegian and Sami languages. Eik teaches grammar, Norwegian as a second language, and scientific theory. Eik holds a PhD in Nordic Linguistics from NTNU (2019), supervised by Professors Tor Åfarli and Terje Lohndal, and an MA in Linguistics from NTNU (2014). Her doctoral work centered on Norwegian compound syntax. Her research interests include grammatical gender decline, dialectal variation, argument structure, and multilingualism. Recent work examines feminine gender loss in Norwegian dialects, documented in articles like "The decline of feminine gender: a cross-dialectal study" (2024) and "Ho trakka han på foten – ein eksoskeletal analyse av possessivt objekt" (2024). She also studies compound-internal language mixing in American Norwegian (2022) and verb semantics comparisons (2021). Eik actively disseminates research through media appearances (e.g., NRK radio) and public lectures. She collaborates with the GenVAC team on large-scale dialect data collection and participates in international conferences like Microvariation and Microchange in Scandinavian Languages (2024). Her work bridges theoretical linguistics with sociolinguistic and experimental methods, contributing to understanding language change dynamics.

Martin Krämer is a Professor of General Linguistics at the Department of Language and Culture, UiT The Arctic University of Norway in Tromsø. His research focuses on phonology , optimality theory , and microvariation , with a particular emphasis on syllable structure, vowel harmony, and language typology. He leads and contributes to projects like Syllable structure: Acquisition, Loss and Typology (SALT) and SIGMA , exploring topics such as Latvian stress patterns and cross-linguistic phonotactics. Key areas of investigation include the interaction of tone, weight, and stress in Latvian; the phonological status of diphthongs and nasal consonants; and the role of sonority hierarchies in syllable formation. Krämer collaborates extensively with institutions in Latvia, Brazil, and other countries, as evidenced by his co-authored works on bilingual Portuguese speakers and Yuman languages. He is affiliated with research groups like AcqVA: Acquisition, Variation & Attrition and has published widely in journals such as Linguistica Lettica , Glossa , and Nordlyd . His work bridges formal phonological theory with empirical analysis, addressing both synchronic and diachronic processes in languages ranging from Italian to Kinande (Bantu).

Marit Westergaard is a Professor of English Linguistics at UiT The Arctic University of Norway, affiliated with the Department of Language and Culture within the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Education. She also serves as Secretary General of The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters. Her research focuses on multilingualism, bilingualism, and language acquisition, with special emphasis on syntactic variation, grammatical gender, and heritage languages. She leads the Center for Language, Brain & Learning (C-LaBL), funded by the Trond Mohn Foundation, which explores multilingualism through experimental methods like eye-tracking and EEG/ERP. Key projects include AcqVA (Acquisition, Variation & Attrition), the Psycholinguistics of Language Representation (PoLaR) lab, and international networks such as MultiGender and MuMin. She develops theoretical frameworks like the Micro-cue Model and Linguistic Proximity Model, explaining language acquisition and cross-linguistic influence. Her work engages with Norwegian dialects, Russian, German, and English, addressing topics like word order variation, attrition, and diachronic change. She collaborates with Bilingualism Matters to provide evidence-based advice for multilingual families through the initiative "Flere språk til flere." Recent research highlights include investigating CLI in L3 acquisition, syntactic variation in heritage languages, and the role of structural similarity in bilingual cognition.

Marit Westergaard is a Professor of English Linguistics at UiT The Arctic University of Norway, affiliated with the Department of Language and Culture. She holds a dual role as Secretary General of The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters and leads research at the Center for Language, Brain & Learning (C-LaBL), a Trond Mohn Foundation-funded initiative focusing on multilingualism and language acquisition. Her work spans first, second/third, and bilingual language acquisition, with specializations in syntax, grammatical gender, and heritage languages. Research Interests include: syntax (word order, possessive constructions), language attrition, and diachronic change, particularly in Norwegian dialects. She explores multilingualism through projects like AcqVA (Acquisition, Variation & Attrition) and MiMS (Microvariation in Multilingual Acquisition & Attrition Situations). Her recent work emphasizes cross-linguistic influence (CLI) in L3 acquisition, using experimental methods (eye-tracking, behavioral studies). Key contributions include the 'Linguistic Proximity Model' and 'Micro-cue Model', explaining how multilingual grammars interact. Active in labs like PoLaR (Psycholinguistics of Language Representation) and AcqVA Aurora, she also runs public-facing initiatives like Flere språk til flere. Grant involvement includes the RCN-funded MuMiN (Multilingual Minds) and international collaborations (EEA Norway grants, MSCA projects). Her 2025 publications address CLI in artificial languages, gender loss in Oslo dialects, and trilingual processing in children. Ongoing projects investigate structural similarity effects and heritage language attrition.
