During his Master's he was focusing on the depiction of kinship, friendship, and lordship in the earliest chronicles of Bohemia, Poland, and Hungary.

For his doctoral research, he has now moved forward in time and is looking at the impact of 13th-century socio-economic transformation on exercising ducal authority and creating trust in fragmented Poland.
