Marie Curie Research Conference

At the conference we will launch the Marie Curie Research, Policy and Public Affairs (RPPA) Strategy, focusing on four key thematic priorities:

• 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

In addition, we want to showcase research focusing on the following important areas:

• Addressing and improving out of hours palliative and end of life care provision

• Research that impacts on practice and policy

• Palliative care research that is co-produced and highlights patient and public involvement (PPI)

• Lessons learned from caring for people affected by dying, death and bereavement during the covid-19 pandemic
