Quality of Life Quarterly Archive
Prior to 2019, Quality of Life Quarterly was ISOQOL’s quarterly newsletter containing information for ISOQOL members about the society’s programs, events, industry news, and governance. All members of the public have access to archived issues.

The International Society for Quality of Life Research (ISOQOL) is a global community of researchers, clinicians, health care professionals, industry professionals, consultants, and patient research partners advancing health related quality of life research (HRQL).
Together, we are creating a future in which patient perspective is integral to health research, care and policy.
