Annotation | The workshop's purpose was to define the current state of the science for end of life in older people, and to identify future directions for US National Institutes of Health (NIH) research initiatives. This special issue of the Gerontologist comprises articles, commentaries and research recommendations for the workshop's four themes: the experience of dying - spirituality; end-of-life organisations, settings, and transitions; methods and measurement in end-of-life research; and ethical implications of end-of-life research.
