Pernille Bjørn is ACM Distinguished member and professor at the Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen, Denmark (DIKU). Professor Bjørn’s research is centred within the area of Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), studying cooperative practices to design cooperative technologies. Professor Bjørn is known for her research on distributed work (e.g., global software development), large information systems (e.g., healthcare systems), and tech entrepreneurship in the global south (e.g., India, Philippines, and Palestine). Currently, Professor Bjørn research interest focuses on Hybrid Work, Cooperative Virtual Reality, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and most recently on bridging gender and neurodiversity. Pernille established the Femtech.dk research program in 2016 and is the PI in the NeuroGen Computing project and will be the main supervisor of the PhD students and the post-doc.

Jenny Margrethe Vej, has a MSc in Computer Science and wrote an amazing thesis, ‘Not just a ‘man in a dress’ Voicing the Invisible Women in Computer Science’, which includes some of the fundamental empirical data by which the NeuroGen Computing Project was created. She is the founder and owner of Diagnoseklubben, an expert in DEI and communication. Jenny will be the Project Administrator in the project.

Valeria Borsotti has a PhD in Computer Science, has a background as an expert in DEI in universities in Denmark and abroad. Her PhD thesis, “Making Trouble: Reconfiguring Equity & Accessibility in Computer Science” is part of the foundational work on which the NeuroGen Computing project was created. Valeria is currently a postdoctoral fellow in the Faculty of Health at the Medical Museion, where she explores “Digitizing the Dead: Human Remains, Data Work and the Politics of Digital Access”. Valeria will act as an Academic Consultant supporting the PhDs and the PostDocs in navigating the university as a place for empirical data collection and intervention.
