Graduated in Physics of Solids State at Slovak Technical University, Faculty of Electrical Engineering in 1963. CSc obtained at Institute of Physics, SAS in Solid State Physics in 1970, DSc obtained at Institute of Physics, SAS in measurement techniques of thermophysical properties in 1990. He participated in study stay at University of California Santa Barbara for 4 month and in several short study stays at NPL Teddington, AIST in Tsukuba and PTB Braunschweig. He worked out the transient technique for measurement of specific heat, thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity in material science and technology (1990). He is co-author of pulse method for measuring thermophysical parameters (2001) and the hot-ball method for measuring thermal conductivity (2006). Both methods are patented. He constructed several instruments based on transient methods. Founder of the SME Transient MS, s.r.o. (2005) that deals with instrument production and service. Author of monograph Pulse Method of Measuring Basic Thermophysical Parameters (Elsevier 1991). Member of International Organizing Committee of ECTP, Chairmen of ECTP conference in Bratislava 2005) and Co-chairmen of ECTP conference in Pau 2008. He was prized by The Thermal Conductivity Award at the 26th ITCC in Cambridge MA 2001 and by INCHEBA 2000 for instrument Thermophysical tester RT 1.02 at the 32nd International Chemical Expo Bratislava 2000.
