Matej Ďurčo is head of the ACDH’s group Digital Humanities Research & Infrastructure.

Since 2002, while still studying computer science at the Technical University Vienna, he has been working at the Austrian Academy of Sciences engaging primarily in corpus linguistics and development of text technological applications. Since 2009, he has also participated actively in the Austrian research infrastructures core group and supported the build-up of the pan-European research infrastructures CLARIN and DARIAH, both on the Austrian and European levels. Since 2014, he was one of the key figures in founding and building up the institute.

From the very beginning, he took care of the institute’s infrastructure agenda, coordinating the development of applications and the provision of services for the numerous projects of the institute and its cooperation partners. Besides building technical infrastructures, his main concern has been the social aspect, sharing knowledge and acting as interpreter between humanities research and the technical world ensuring mutual understanding in order to find optimal solutions for the specific needs of the researchers.

As of November 2022, he has also been acting as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of the European research infrastructure consortium DARIAH.
