We hold many research collaborations with other academics and departments in both palliative care and rehabilitation, both within and outside the UK. We work closely with other organisations such as Cicely Saunders International and the World Health Organisation (WHO).  The department has recently been designated a WHO collaborating centre for palliative care and older people.  WHO reports - more information.
 
The department also participates in the Compass Collaborative, an NCRI Supportive and Palliative Care Research Collaborative and hosts a monthly seminar series here at the Institute.
 
Resources and publications resulting from these collaborations are available.
 
As well as departmental links, several members of staff have international links.

We are also co-ordinating PRISMA which is a Europe-wide research collaborative of partners in Europe and Africa which seeks to improve measures and outcomes for patients and families.

Information about research work undertaken and continuing in sub-Saharan Africa is in the Publications/Key Reports section.
