The First International Congress on Tibetan Medicine provided the impetus for this community information network to keep scholars, researchers, practitioners, patients, and enthusiasts of Tibetan Medicine in contact and to continue the dialogue started at the conference.
This site was maintained by the Alternative Medicine Foundation, Inc. from 1998 to 2010. The Alternative Medicine Foundation no longer operates as nonprofit organization. These pages have been retained as an archival information resource.

Congress. The Alternative Medicine Foundation has pledged to maintain the site. Ultimately
the site will be linked to a Tibetan Medicine subset of HerbMed®
