Institute of East-West Medicine |
The Institute of East-West Medicine was duly incorporated
as a non-profit organization and recognized under Section 501(c)(3)
of the Internal Revenue Code in 1997. The mission of the Institute
is to promote understanding and foster research regarding Eastern-healing
systems especially as it relates and integrates with contemporary
Western medicine. Towards this goal, we are advised by a distinguished
Board
of Researchers, Physicians, and Professors/Educators who guide
the Institute. We have worked closely with the New York Open
Center, Procultura, Tibet House and other non-profit organizations
in our work and major projects we have undertaken include the
sponsorship of Tibetan
Medicine practice at our Manhattan location,
sponsorship of the publication of the periodical AyurVijnana
by the International Trust for Traditional Medicine (ITTM),
and joint sponsorship of research and preservation of endangered
Himalayan herbs in Nepal with ITTM, the Institute of Traditional
Medicine as well as Earthwatch Institute, sponsorship of the
1st International Tibetan Medicine Congress in
Washington DC in 1998 and the
1st International Asian Therapies for Cancer Conference
in New York City in 2000. We welcome your suggestions and hope
that you will support us with a tax-deductible contribution
such that we can further our work. For further info on our program
and how you may help, please contact info@eastwestmed.org.
