His first career was as a research scientist studying Chemistry at the University of Edinburgh, his PhD focussed on proto-type molecular machines. This was followed by post-doctoral work at Durham, St Andrews, Glasgow and Strathclyde Universities. Roy came to Australia in 2016 at Macquarie University as a Research Fellow. He then decided to move into research support, first in the Research Portfolio at University of Sydney by supporting the ARC Linkage Program and now leading Faculty support.
