Suprinyak specializes in the history of political economy, with background training in economic methodology, economic history, international trade theory, and development economics.

He also received the 2019 ESHET Young Researcher Award, given by the European Society for the History of Economic Thought for outstanding contributions to the history of economics by scholars under 40 years of age.
