Asimismo, ha trabajado en la Universidad de Toronto, el Instituto de Tecnología de California (Caltech), la Escuela Universitaria de Londres (UCL) y participó como científico adjunto en el Centro de Tecnología Astronómica del Reino Unido en Edimburgo. Rob ha jugado un papel de vital importancia en diversos e importantes programas de investigación en el área de la cosmología y la astronomía extragaláctica, a cargo de un gran número de productivas asociaciones.
