Marcin Wodziński is a professor of Jewish studies at the University of Wrocław, where he heads the Taube Department of Jewish Studies. His research is centered on the 19th century social history of Jews in Silesia and Eastern Europe (chiefly the areas that had historically comprised Poland), and particularly on Haskalah and the Hasidic movement within Judaism.He has employed both qualitative as well as geospatial and quantitative methods in his study of Hasidism playing a pioneering role in the understanding of geographic factors in its development in former Poland and Eastern Europe. This approach features notably in his [https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691174013/historical-atlas-of-hasidism ''Historical Atlas of Hasidism''], complemented by his other closely interrelated books on the movement's history in the context of wider socio-historical processes in the region: with [https://academic.oup.com/book/8161 ''Hasidism: Key Questions''], [https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691175157/hasidism ''Hasidism: A New History''] (co-authored) and ''Studying Hasidism: Sources, Methods, Perspectives'' (co-edited).
His interest in digital methods in humanities resulted also in his contributions to several projects, among others to the Yerusha project, where Wodziński was responsible for the Polish section, and to several ongoing projects focused on the collection, analysis and publication of data along with tools for digital historical analysis, in cooperation with several universities in Israel (Bar Ilan, Haifa University, Open University of Israel) and Toronto University.
