    AbstractThe paucity of research in hospice and palliative care has resulted in the absence of a sound, scientific foundation for clinical practice.

Many barriers exist, however, that present unique challenges for research with patients and families who have life-limiting illness. Evaluation of key components for the successful performance of interdisciplinary research and integration in clinical settings are explored.
