Brian E. Roe studies household and institutional food waste, using surveys, field experiments, and behavioral economics methods to understand why people waste food and how to reduce it. Recent work spans topics like free produce distribution, school cafeteria plate waste, anti-obesity medication and food consumption, and short-term rental food waste. His research aims to inform practical interventions and policies for reducing food waste and improving sustainability in food systems.
Publication output has remained fairly steady over the last decade, fluctuating between about 6 and 15 papers per year with no clear long-term upward or downward trend.
