David Chodounsky got his PhD in 2011 at the Charles University in Prague under the supervision of P. Simon and B. Balcar.

Starting October 2011 he works as a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Mathematics of the Czech Academy of Sciences and in July 2012 – June 2013 he is a postdoctoral fellow in Toronto.

His research is focused mainly on substructures of the powerset of integers.
