PAST EVENT:

The PCRS Annual Scientific Meeting and AGM
Goodenough College, London
Thursday 12 November 2009

Click here to view the conference programme and abstracts presented as part of this one day conference. Additional abstracts were presented as poster presentations throughout the day

Professor Scott Murray, leader of the Primary Palliative Care Research Group, a multi-disciplinary team based in General Practice at the University of Edinburgh, lead us through our programme for the day.

Scott is also a Research Advisor to the British Medical Journal, currently leading a “Making a difference campaign” for all people at the end of life. He also regularly visits African countries, where he used to work, to conduct training, service evaluation and research. He strongly believes we can learn from Africa about promoting a discourse on death and dying in society, so that people and local communities can be more involved in helping each other at the end of life.

We hope to have CPD confirmed shortly and will send certificates to those who attended
as soon as possible. We apolgise for the delay
