Hey everyone,
Just two quick items of interest:
1. The AAAOM student organization has just announced a Chinese medicine scholarship opportunity. It appears that this scholarship is intending not just to help some lucky students, but also to continue to cultivate a culture of scholarship. They say,
“A designated exhibition area at the 2009 AAAOM Conference Student Caucus in Sacramento will host this year’s competition entries in the form of table-top and poster presentations. From the entries, three scholarships of $250 each will be awarded in two exhibition categories: Scholarly Projects and Chapter Projects.”
Awesome!
2. A very enthusiastic and skilled student at my school, National College of Natural Medicine, has put together a great natural medicine forum online. I’ve talked about it before, but I really want to encourage folks to sign up. It has a section for Chinese medicine students and practitioners to talk. I thought it might be a good place for some of the discussions we have here on Deepest Health to continue in an easy to follow format. Come join the discussion!
Enjoy your New Year celebration!
Eric

Your friend’s forum looks really interesting. I will sign up right now.
What a noble forum it will be. Widening the horizon of learning through online discussion in relation to natural medicine (and to think the organizer was a student).
Congratulations,

It is really nice to see that AAAOM student organization is going to launch a scholarship to encourage the studies on Chinese medicine. I do not know a lot about Chinese medicine, but having just visited the forum that you talked about, it seems that it will be a highly interactive forum where people will be able to share their thoughts and ideas on different aspects of Chinese medicine.
Thanks for your article.
