Professor Clark is leading a major end-of-life care project at the University’s School of Interdisciplinary Studies at the Crichton Campus in Dumfries

Professor Clark will work with Professor Craig White, Divisional Clinical Lead at the Scottish Government, the National Advisory Group and the Scottish Government policy team who will be considering various views and feedback on the focus of the Strategic Framework for Action. Professor White has links too with Glasgow as Honorary Professor with the Institute of Health and Wellbeing, College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences.
