INSTITUTE OF EAST-WEST MEDICINE

It has been over 2 decades since the Institute of East-West Medicine was 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 have been advised by a distinguished Board of Researchers, Physicians, and Professors/Educators who have  the Institute. We have worked closely with the New York Open Center, Procultura, Tibet House, CMDB and other non-profit organizations in our work and major projects we have undertaken include the sponsorship of a Tibetan Medicine practice at our Manhattan location, sponsorship of the publication of the periodical Ayur-Vijnana 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 Cancer Conference in New York City in 2000. We welcome your funding suggestions and research ideas and hope that you will support us with a tax-deductible contribution such that we can further our work.
