The 2024 Marie Curie Research Conference will continue to focus on our four key thematic priorities, as part of the Marie Curie Research, Policy and Public Affairs (RPPA) strategy:

• supporting the mental and physical health, and wellbeing of people affected by dying, death and bereavement
• ending financial insecurity at the end of life and ensuring that everyone has the support they need to address their practical concerns
• ensuring that everyone affected by dying and death – including the family, friends, and carers of the dying person - are supported through and beyond the end of life (including into bereavement)
• ending inequity in end of life experience by ensuring access to excellent standards of care and support for all.

We welcome anyone with an interest in improving end of life for all through palliative and end of life care research to attend.
