Next-Gen Palliative Interventions: Opportunities to advance care and care delivery in serious illness across the lifespan through innovative research methods

Grand Rounds - October 8, 2026

Designing effective palliative care interventions is only the beginning; researchers must also unpack how they work, address the interconnected needs of persons with serious illness and caregivers, and bridge the gap between clinical trials and real-world delivery.

ASCENT was joined by four leading experts in serious illness intervention research for a high-impact panel discussion on next-generation approaches to palliative care research. Key topics included:

  • NIH Stage Model Rigor: Navigating Stages 0–5 to build mechanistically sound, theoretically grounded, patient/family-centered behavioral interventions that scale.
  • Dual-Tier Innovation: Developing rigorous new palliative-informed interventions that utilize innovative delivery approaches and highly specific interventions delivered by palliative specialists.
  • Whole-Person Health: Elevating rigor in spiritual and psychosocial intervention science.
  • Dyads, Triads & Care Convoys: Interventions that mechanistically integrates care across complex patient-caregiver networks, and analyzes both individual and within group outcomes.
  • Lifespan Adaptation: Designing and tailoring interventions to serve across age groups from neonates to the older adults.

Together, these insights offer a roadmap to better build, evaluate, and scale palliative care interventions that truly serve persons with serious illness, caregivers, and their broader care networks while removing the “black box” around how they work.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since 1966, when designers at Letraset and James Mosley, the librarian at St Bride Printing Library in London, took a 1914 Cicero translation and scrambled it to make dummy text for Letraset's Body Type sheets. It has survived not only many decades, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised thanks to these sheets and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker and Microsoft Word including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
