Linda Casey

Overview: My clinical work is all centred around the nutritional care of children with medical illness, and my research interests come directly out of my clinical work. Nutritional assessment to understand the needs of medically complicated children, and nutrition support to try to meet those needs drive all the research questions that I explore.
Research: Current Projects
No current active research, as I arrived in Vancouver in September 2012 with a primarily clinical mandate.Have just been accepted as a participant site for the Industry Sponsored trial "A 24-Week Double-blind Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacodynamic Study Investigating Two Doses of Teduglutide in Pediatric Subjects through 17 Years of Age with Short Bowel syndrome who are Dependent on Parental Support," to begin in 2016.
