30th IVAS Congress, Sept 2004, Oostende, Belgium: Call for Papers

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

 

Please see the notice - Call for Papers for 2004 IVAS Congress in

Oostende, Belgium - below. I have edited it slightly.

 

Note that Dr. Jim Skoien is one of the keynote speakers. Jim was

our main teacher in the IVAS/BeVAS Herb Course. His knowledge

of TCM/Chinese Herbal Medicine is incredible..

 

Note also that Drs. Richard Tan and Amer Silim will be keynote

speakers also. Their ideas should be very valuable to clinicians.

 

Although this is mainly an AP Congress, the basic theories

underpinning AP and Chinese Herbal Medicine are similar. CHM

herbalists may have useful material to present and they will

certainly benefit from attendance at the Congress and interaction

with the participants, many of whom also practice CHM.

 

Best regards,

Phil
