ABSTRACT

The Quest for Personalised Health: Exploring the emergent interface of East Asian medicines and modern system sciences’ organised by EAST medicine Research Centre at the University of Westminster and the School of Life Sciences through the Director Dr Volker Scheid with Professor Jan van der Greef and Professor Bridie Andrews, as well as the International Association for the Study of Traditional Asian Medicines (IASTAM). It was held in London on the 10th & 11th June, 2011. I commend the Conference organisers and speakers for the challenges they have given. Finding East Asian medicine a place in the future seems a particularly urgent problem in Europe. We need practitioners who continue to do East Asian medicine with clinical excellence. We also need people who are able to connect us with other medical traditions and pioneer studies such as systems biology. If our purpose is to bring the wisdom of our personalised health practises to a broader public then these systems biologists are an excellent and fertile starting point
