Curt Rice is Executive Director of Fulbright Norway. Originally from the United States, he has spent more than thirty years in Norwegian academia as a researcher, supervisor, and academic leader.

He served for over two decades at UiT The Arctic University of Norway as Professor of Linguistics, Founding Director of the Center for Advanced Study in Theoretical Linguistics (CASTL), and later Vice Rector for Research. He subsequently served as Rector at Oslo Metropolitan University and at Norwegian University of Life Sciences.

As a scholar and research leader, Rice has worked extensively with questions of collaboration, authorship, research incentives, and publishing norms. His perspective on co-authorship draws on experience as a co-author, supervisor, evaluator, and policymaker, examining how credit allocation and institutional structures influence research practice. He is also the founder of Publishing Unlocked, an initiative that helps early-career researchers better understand how academic publishing systems function.

Iris Edda Nowenstein is an assistant professor in language technology at the School of Humanities.

David Loic Daniel Reimer is a professor of sociology of education at the School of Education & the School of Social Sciences.
