Roger D. Newman, BSc (Hons), MSc, MRCSLT

Roger D. Newman, BSc (Hons), MSc, MRCSLT, is a Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, UK. He is also currently a Senior Lecturer on the University of Manchester's undergraduate BSc (Hons) Speech and Language Therapy degree program, and an Honorary Lecturer on the Masters Level course in Advanced Imaging at the University of Salford, Greater Manchester. His specialist clinical interests include the objective examination of dysphagia via videofluoroscopy and interpretation of highly abnormal images, which prompted publication of the rare case of dysphagia in hyoid bone fracture. Adult acute disorders of swallowing, including in patients with a tracheostomy tube in-situ, are also areas at which he excels. His research interests include quality in service provision and he has just completed a Transatlantic Comparative Study of Acute Dysphagia Services. The ethics and legalities of feeding in the end of life are also areas of significant interest.
