Ksenija Bazdaric
Ksenija Baždarić is associate professor at the Department of Basic Sciencies Rijeka University Faculty of health Studies, Croatia. Her academic background lies both in social sciences and biomedicine. She received her master’s degree in psychology (2002) and PhD in social medicine (2012). She teaches medical informatics, statistics and scientific methodology. Her investigation for the PhD thesis ''The Value of Plagiarism Detection Procedure in a Biomedical Journal'' was focused on the detection of similar texts with web-services CrossCheck and eTBLAST in the Croatian Medical Journal (www.cmj.hr) during 2009-2010, and the development of standard operating procedure for detecting and dealing with plagiarism in biomedical journals. She became Research Integrity Editor at the Croatian Medical Journal (http://www.cmj.hr) in 2012 and Chief Editor of European Science Editing (http://www.ease.org.uk/publications/european-science-editing), the offical journal of the European Association of Science Editors (http://www.ease.org.uk/) in 2015.Her current research activities include open science.

He is a Strategic Advisor to the Economic and Social Research Council in the area of Social Media Data. Working on the intersection of humanities, social science, and computer science, David conducts research on social machines, computational musicology, large scale sociotechnical systems, cyber security and social computing.
Robert O Deaner
I earned my PhD in the Department of Biological Anthropology & Anatomy at Duke University (1995 – 2001), and my advisor was Carel van Schaik. Although I conducted some research on wild primates, my doctoral research consisted of comparative studies of primate life history, social systems, and cognition.
I did postdoctoral research in Duke’s Department of Neurobiology (2001-2006), and my supervisor was Michael Platt. My research focused on mechanisms of social attention in primates. During this time I took up distance running and began investigating sex differences in performance and motivation.
In 2006, I joined the Psychology Department at Grand Valley State University.
Peter Denning
Distinguished professor of computer science at Naval Postgraduate School. Past president of ACM. Past editor in chief of Communications of ACM. Currently editor of ACM Ubiquity. Author of ten books, most recent Great Principles of Computing (MIT Press 2015). Author of over four hundred scientific papers and articles.
Szymon M Drobniak
I’m a scientist working at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków (Poland) and the University of New South Wales in Sydney (Australia). I study biological evolution, with particular interest in quantitative genetics, phenotypic plasticity, evolution of colour and colourful signals, and sexual selection. In my work, I use extensively complex statistical tools and multi-level modelling. Apart from empirical studies, I conduct meta-analyses and comparative analyses, synthesising existing evidence and developing new ways of summarizing empirical evidence.
Andrew R Gray
I am a biostatistician in the Biostatistics Centre at the University of Otago, a role I have held since 2004. Most of my work involves collaborating on a wide range of research projects in the health sciences, particularly in paediatric obesity, sleep, and physical activity; respiratory epidemiology, mostly asthma and COPD; dentistry; and health systems. I also work on statistical methods research, mostly topics inspired by these collaborations.
Prior to my current position I was a software metrics and machine learning researcher in the Department of Information Science at the same institution.
Daniel Graziotin
Daniel Graziotin is a full professor of information systems and digital technologies at the University of Hohenheim, Germany. He earned his PhD in computer science and software engineering from the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy. His research focuses on interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches, incorporating theories, methods, and measurements from social and behavioral sciences, to enhance the understanding and integration of human factors in technology development and implementation.
Prof. Dr. Daniel Graziotin is academic editor at the PeerJ Computer science journal, academic editor at the Research Ideas and Outcomes journal, editorial advisory board member at the Journal of Open Research Software, and editorial board member at the Empirical Software Engineering journal. He has also served on the organizing committees of multiple international research conferences (ICSE, ESEC/FSE, ESEM, XP, PROFES) and workshops (CHASE, SEmotion) as well as serving on dozens of program committees. He drives the open science initiative at the ACM Special Interest Group on Software Engineering (SIGSOFT) to foster the practice of open access, open data, and open source at the various research venues in software engineering.
His work has been awarded with the ACM SIGSOFT Distinguished Paper Award and Best Presentation Award in 2022, the Journal of Systems and Software Best Paper award in 2019, the Jean-Claude Guédon Prize in 2018, the European Design Award (bronze) in 2016, and the Data Journalism Award in 2015.
