Very little has been reported about instructing medical students on the psychosocial aspects of life-threatening illness, and there is evidence that this subject has been neglected in medical education. Structured courses are preferable to informal instruction but they are not universally employed, for reasons which are more related to resistance and avoidance than to availability of curriculum time or qualified faculty. Indications are, however, that such education is increasing. Yet to be determined are optimal teaching methods for this subject. Improved communication among educators in this area is needed
