About ACTREC
About Integrating Traditional Knowledge in Evidence Based Medicine Symposium
The spotlight of the symposium will be on the wealth of indigenous knowledge on human physiology, its reciprocal relationship with nature, and how this ‘know-how’ was used to treat diseases. The defining principles of medicine prevalent then are not very obvious today.
In this symposium, we bring together a panel of experts to synergize the concepts and find ways to integrate traditional knowledge with modern biology. This alone can pave way for a truly systems approach in understanding human biology, its pathophysiology and treatment of management of chronic diseases such as cancer.
The Advanced Centre for Treatment, Research and Education in Cancer (ACTREC) is the state of art of R&D wing of the Tata Memorial Centre, spread in a 60 acre terrain. It is located in the picturesque settings at the foothills of the Sahyadri hills in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai. ACTREC encompasses, the Cancer Research Institute (CRI), Clinical Research Centre (CRC) and Centre for Cancer Epidemiology (CCE). This unique setting is built in India and is evolved with a vision to provide comprehensive care, through its dictum of quality in services, education and research in Cancer. https://actrec.gov.in
