[4] During the 1980s he worked as an assistant professor at the Department of Mathematics of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU).

He was in 2004/05 at the TU Munich, from 2008 to 2010 a visiting professor at the Central European University in Budapest, and in 2012 at the Erwin Schrödinger Institute in Vienna.

[3] His research deals with partial differential equations, infinite dimensional dynamical systems, and mathematical problems of hydrodynamics.

He was an invited speaker in 2002 at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Beijing,[5] and at the conference Dynamics, Equations and Applications in Kraków in 2019.

In 2013 he received an Advanced Grant from the European Research Council (ERC) for the study of mathematical modeling of gas movement and heat exchange.
