His thesis "Evaluation of objective and subjective factors of highly reverberant acoustic field" focused on the psychoacoustic aspects of choral music perception in the diffused field. His main research tools were auralization techniques combined with ambisonics. He is an author of over 100 scientific publications on room acoustics, sound perception, sound source localization and soundscape analysis. Also, during international conferences and conventions he used to provide spatial sound workshops and ambisonic works presentations. He is also a jury member of Europe's Student 3D Audio Production Competition in Ambisonics. He is an assistant professor at the AGH University and works as a freelance sound engineer and acoustic consultant.
