The Palliative Care Clinical Studies Collaborative (PaCCSC) is an Australia-wide research network that aims to improve the wellbeing of people with life-limiting illnesses through:
the generation of high quality research evidence to support effective palliative care clinical interventions including medications
building capacity within the health workforce in the conduct and understanding of high quality palliative care clinical research
the translation of palliative care research results into clinical practice and policy.
Our role
Public health and clinical advances have led to people living longer and consequently having a higher likelihood of warning of death. Our role is to engage in high quality research that provides the evidence base to underpin and optimise quality healthcare practice for people with life-limiting illnesses.
