Read MoreThe International Congress on Complementary Medicine Research, ICCMR, is organized annually by the International Society for Complementary Medicine Research, ISCMR. In 2009, ISCMR joined forces with NARCIM, the North American Conference of Integrated Medicine, which was held in Minneapolis, USA with over 800 participants. Next year, we’ll meet in Tromsø, Norway – the “Gateway to the Arctic”!
As an international scientific organization of researchers, practitioners and policy makers, ISCMR fosters Complementary and Integrative Medicine research, and provides a platform for knowledge and information exchange to enhance international communication and collaboration.
Our aim for the congress is to provide an arena where researchers in CAM can present their latest findings and hone their ideas with each other in direct dialogue. We wish to provide the state of evidence for the most widespread treatment methods and to present the latest results from research.
This in turn stimulates the researchers to use their creative abilities to the utmost in order to find answers to relevant problems. For people in general, this research exchange will ensure that all kinds of treatments will be based on increasingly more systematic knowledge.
The 5th International Congress on Complementary Medicine Research will be held from May 19th to 21st, 2010 in the beautiful city of Tromsø, Norway - at the same latitude as Alaska and Siberia, but barely a two-hour flight from Oslo. Situated in an archipelago of islands, between deep blue fiords and snow-white mountain peaks, Tromsø is also known as the Gateway to the Arctic, Paris of the North, and capital of Northern Norway.
Hosted by internationally recognised professor Vinjar Fønnebø and the rest of Norway’s National Research Center in Alternative and Complementary Medicine (NAFKAM), we look forward to a congress that will showcase relevant research on complementary medicine for the chronically ill - through keynote and plenary sessions, a public lecture, oral and poster presentations.
The main topic areas to be covered at ICCMR 2010 are:
We hope that researchers, employees in the public health service, politicians as well as bureaucrats in the health sector and CAM practitioners turn their eyes north to receive a first-hand update of this important field.
