À propos de l?auteur

Dr.Sara Booth founded the Cambridge Breathlessness Intervention Service (CBIS) in 2004 based on work she started some ten years earlier. Dr Booth is an experienced researcher as well as clinician and has a worldwide reputation in caring for patients with breathlessness. The CBIS concept has been copied in other parts of the world and Dr Booth has lectured at many conferences for oncologists and respiratory as well as palliative care clinicians on the management of breathlessness. Dr Booth was the first chair of the National Cancer Institute's Breathlessness Research Group. Ms Julie Burkin is a specialist OT who has worked in hospices and cancer centres caring for breathless patients. She is now the lead clinician for CBIS and has lectured widely, nationally and internationally, on the management of breathlessness. Ms Catherine Moffat is a specialist physiotherapist who has a particular interest in breathing exercises - a poorly researched area she has made her own. Ms Moffat is designing research in this area and has also lectured widely on the work of CBIS and the management of breathlessness.
