Mark Janse (born August 31, 1959 in Sas van Gent, The Netherlands) is Research Professor in Asia Minor and Ancient Greek at Ghent University, where he studied Classics, Hebrew and Linguistics. Before coming to Ghent, Janse has been editor of Linguistic Bibliography and Professor of Linguistics and Classics and Head of the Department of Arts & Humanities at Roosevelt Academy, an international honours college of Utrecht University. He is a former visiting fellow of the University of Amsterdam (2002-2004), All Souls College in Oxford (2007) and the Onassis Foundation in Greece (2008), and has been a visiting professor at Ghent University (1996-2004), the University of Amsterdam (2003), Ohio State University (2004) and the University of Patras (2006-2009). He is a Research Associate of the ESRC Centre for Research on Bilingualism at Bangor University (since 2008) and a Senior Visiting Scholar of the Onassis Foundation (USA) (2011).

Janse's fields of research are Asia Minor and Ancient Greek, language change, language typology, language contact, and language death, in both the ancient and the modern world, on which he has published numerous books and articles. In June 2005, Mark Janse and Dimitris Papazachariou from the University of Patras discovered native speakers of Cappadocian Greek, a Greek-Turkish mixed language believed to have died out in the 1960s. He is a regular speaker at the annual Cappadocian Gavoustema, a member of the scientific board of the Pan-Hellenic Union of Cappadocian Societies (Πανελλήνια Ένωση Καππαδοκικών Σωματείων) and an honorary member of the Cappadocian Society of Evros "The Three Bisshops" (Οι Τρεις Ιεράρχες).
