Dear colleagues

As the new convenor of the British Sociological Association study group 'The 
Social Aspects of Death, Dying and Bereavement' (DDB for short), I am 
emailing as part of a scoping exercise to find out about sociologists 
undertaking research or teaching in this area, both in the UK and abroad.

If you are a sociologist by training or work within the social sciences more 
generally I would be very grateful if you could contact me at 
[log in to unmask] and tell me a little about what you are researching 
on or teach about death. 

My aim ultimately is to share information about colleagues' activities on the 
study group webpage (address below) so interested parties can know where 
the sociology of death is being taught, find out about PhD students' work and 
what sociologists in this area are currently researching. Of course, I would not 
put anything on the webpage without your permission.

I would appreciate it if you could circulate this email to your colleagues who 
are working in this area.

Many thanks in advance and look forward to hearing from you
Kate
