Dr Sorrel Burden Ph.D. MA, MSc,SD, BSc (Hons)
Role
Sorrel currently works as a Research Fellow at the School of Nursing, Midwifery and Social Work supported by a Post Doctoral Fellowship from Macmillan Cancer Care. This is a 5 year fellowship concentrating on integrating nutrition into the care pathway for colorectal cancer patients. The programme of work is centred on the frame work for developing complex interventions into clinical practice. The first phase of the work is to undertake some qualitative interviews followed by an evaluation of an intervention and assessment of outcomes. This work then leads to a pilot study for a randomised controlled trial in preoperative colorectal cancer patients. Other research interests and projects Sorrel is involved in look at nutritional support in cancer patients in the acute setting and also in survivorship
Clinically Sorrel works as a Lead Dietitian in Nutritional Support and Gastroenterology at Central Manchester University Hospital Foundation Trust. This work predominantly involves parenteral nutrition and Coeliac Disease.
