Dr Roy's current methodological research interests center on developing Bayesian non-parametric methods for causal inference. This includes methods for causal mediation, treatment-effect heterogeneity, and optimal treatment strategies. He is also interested in developing scalable algorithms for big data, and his methodological research is motivated by challenges from analyzing data from large healthcare databases.
