From 2011 to 2014 the project led by Nicolas Favez studied the role of social support as a resource helping people to deal with the stress caused by a fatal illness. It was concerned with the effects of this on quality of life, with the goal of facilitating psychosocial and psychological interventions for couples dealing with this kind of situation.
