The End-of-Life Care Research Group conducts high-quality scientific research in end-of-life care in Belgium and across Europe. Researchers from different scientific backgrounds work in a common research structure to facilitate interdisciplinary collaborative research.
The group strives to optimize the training and support of junior researchers in order to expand future expertise in end-of-life care research.The research group also aims to achieve maximum dissemination of its research findings through scientific publications, conferences, professional organizations and the popular media. This means our research leads to the improvement of medical training and education, of end-of-life care practice and organization, and of political and institutional policy.
The current team of the End-of-Life Care Research Group consists of about 60 core staff members. The team is led by prof. Lieve Van den Block and prof. Joachim Cohen at Vrije Universiteit Brussel and by prof. dr. Kenneth Chambaere at Ghent University.
