    • Integrative education trains biomedical and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practitioners together.
    • Effective coordination of patient care requires understanding both traditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the impact of bias on integrative education.
    • To discuss principles for an open-minded bilateral educational model.
    • To foster a new generation of integrative medicine teachers.

    Main Methods:

    • Discussing principles for an open-minded bilateral educational model.
    • Analyzing the foundational role of acculturation in training.
