Palliative and End of Life Care Research Group
We are a team of researchers at the University of Bristol, with close links to other higher education institutions and organisations in the South West.
The purpose of the group is to:
- Facilitate collaboration and partnering between researchers and clinicians working in palliative/end of life care at the University of Bristol and our GW4 partners, as well as external organisations and members of the public
- Generate successful collaborative grant applications
- Increase public engagement, e.g. with debates about futile treatment, care planning and grief and bereavement
- Improve the dissemination and impact of University of Bristol research in palliative and end of life care
