UAB Center for Palliative Care Journal Club

The mission of the journal club is twofold:

1. To encourage active and critical reading of palliative care literature to enhance the clinical care, research activities, and training experiences within the Center for Palliative Care.
2. To stimulate the growth of a supportive community of learners by providing an opportunity to eat, drink, and debrief in an informal and comfortable setting.

The Palliative Care Journal Club meets monthly to critically review articles selected from current palliative literature. Palliative care faculty and fellows, UAB residents, colleagues from nursing and psychology, and members of the palliative care and hospice community in Birmingham are invited to participate. Meetings consist of a structured small group discussion, with a review of selected articles utilizing appropriate editorial guidelines when possible. All participants rotate responsibility for moderating the discussion. Interested faculty and trainees are welcome.
