• 2014: scholarship holder of AKTION program awarded by Austrian Federal Ministry of Science, Research and Economy; research scholarship at the Universität Wien, Fakultät für Informatik (October 2014), participating on LITERACY-EU program
• 2017/09/01 – 2017/09/30: University of Strasburg, Strasbourg, Other programs, FRA
  • Pobyt je uskutečněn na základě stipendia francouzské vlády jako visiting internship. Cílem je studium symptomů dyslexie u frankofonní populace a následné vytvoření a uzpůsobení asistivní technologie identifikující individuální problémy frankofonních uživatelů včetně návrhu asistivní technologie, která by těmto uživatelům umožnila zohledňovat jejich specifické potřeby při čtení.
• 2016/11/21 – 2016/11/25: University of Vienna, Vienna, AUT
  • Cílem pobytu je stínování odborného akademického pracovníka a navazování kontaktů pro budoucí bližší spolupráci obou institucí, a to jak formou výukových pobytů, tak vědeckých projektů.
• 2014/10/01 – 2014/10/31: University of Vienna, Vienna, AKTION, AUT
  • The aim of the research project is to analyze ways in which the visual appearance of text can be adapted in order to increase its readability for dyslexics. Based on the analysis, a new method for (semi-) automatic detection and segmentation of problematic text fragments in a way to render text that can be read by dyslexic users will be proposed. A prototype will be designed and tested for its potential inclusion in the LITERACY EU-project in which the University of Vienna, Austria is a partner.
