Pittsburgh to Host 2027 Hospice and Palliative Care Assembly

Registration is now open for the four-day gathering, which aims to bridge the gap between current clinical research and bedside practice. The program features three keynote addresses, over 100 presentations, and specialized workshops scheduled for the opening day. Attendees can engage with topics ranging from pain management strategies for serious illnesses to leadership development and equity in patient care.

Keynote speakers include former U.S. Department of Health and Human Services CTO Susannah Fox, who will open the conference on Thursday. The agenda also highlights the "Best In Science" research showcase on Friday and a multi-perspective discussion on Medical Aid in Dying scheduled for Saturday. For those unable to attend in person, the organizations will provide on-demand access to recorded sessions for three months following the conference.
