People, Planet, Purpose

We invite you to join us! The Academy of Integrative Health & Medicine (AIHM) and the Office of Continuing Education at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB) come together to bring you the 2017 AIHM Annual Conference: People, Planet, Purpose.

We believe that high-quality care should be accessible to all and it is time to set a new standard of care. Working together, we are particularly excited to see how Integrative Medicine, through prevention and addressing upstream factors of health, serves public health initiatives.

Over 1,100 doctors, health clinicians, researchers and students are expected to gather for a community-centric conference of lectures, panels, networking, small group discussions, workshops, evening events and experiential programs.

We hope you will join us in San Diego for “The Integrative Health & Medicine Conference of the Year.” Your presence would be a gift.

With much warmth,

Brad Jacobs, MD, MPH, ABOIM Board Chair, Academy of Integrative Health & Medicine

Mimi Guarneri, MD, FACC, ABOIM President, Academy of Integrative Health & Medicine
