Ensuring good quality education about palliative and end of life care is a large part of our research and teaching at the University of Cambridge. Our research under this theme seeks to understand the experiences of medical students as they encounter dying or dead patients during their studies and in clinical interactions. Beyond medical students’ experiences, we also undertake research to assess how palliative care teaching fits into medical school curricula across the UK.
