About Us
The Johns Hopkins Integrative Medicine Society is a community of students, researchers, faculty, and affiliated community members who wish to explore Integrative Medicine (IM). Integrative Medicine covers complementary and alternative medicine - such as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), and Ayurveda - as well as Aromatherapy, Music and Art Therapy, etc. Our goal is to encourage the bright minds of Johns Hopkins University to research, discuss and understand IM.
Our Missions include:
- Introducing Integrative Medicine to JHSPH community
- Exploring ways through which Integrative Medicine can be used to advance health equity
- Creating educational contents and launching seminars about basic Integrative Medicine theory and research related to Integrative Medicine
- Establishing an academic network of practitioners of Integrative Medicine and Johns Hopkins students who share an interest in Integrative Medicine research
- Strengthening the symbiotic relationship between public health and IM to broaden healing practices in an ever-globalizing world
