Welcome to the May edition of the IAHPC Newsletter. Our guest writer on the Featured Article page is Dr. Derek Doyle who asks the question: Palliative Care: Luxury or necessary for life? Dr. Katherine Pettus, just back from representing IAHPC at the United Nations General Assembly Special Session on Drugs in New York, gives a comprehensive review of these important proceedings, and Prof. Julia Downing explains how an IAHPC Traveling Scholarship is influencing her international work. And, as usual, we bring a selection of news, reviews and announcements.
Best wishes, and many thanks to everyone who has contributed and been involved in this issue of the newsletter.
