Over the past five years, NELS ICE has carried out research to improve access to care for persons at end of life.  An Interdisciplinary Capacity Enhancement (ICE) grant of $820,000 from CIHR provided support for nine end of life research project streams.  To celebrate the success of the NELS ICE, an event is being held:
