About University of Glasgow End of Life Studies Group
The Glasgow End of Life Studies Group are an interdisciplinary network of academics, policy makers and practitioners doing research into end of life issues in Scotland and around the world.
The Glasgow End of Life Studies Group is led by the University of Glasgow and based in Dumfries, Scotland.
Over a million deaths occur in the world every week. The figure will almost double over the next 40 years. With population ageing and evolving patterns of mortality and morbidity, care for people at the end of life is set to become one of the most pressing humanitarian issues of the 21st century.
Our major research project is the Global Interventions at the End of Life, supported by the Wellcome Trust and led by the University of Glasgow. We are examining how ‘interventions’ or responses to end of life issues transfer from one location to another, and how they translate to another culture or context.
