	National Workshop on Modern Scientific Techniques for Indian Systems of Medicine & Natural Products Development (Date: 29thJuly to 31th July 2015)

About the Programme

Indian Systems of Medicine (ISM) is a time tested practices of Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani and Homeopathy. While these Systems are still in large scale practice in our country, their acceptability and market share is rather limited compared to the allopathic system. One of the reasons for this is the lack of testing, standardization, and quality control of their drugs and formulations using modern scientific and manufacturing techniques. Even though some aspects of these topics are expected to be taught within the curricula of the formal ISM courses themselves (such as BAMS etc.,), this does not seem to be happening anywhere near to the required levels.

Offering short workshops and courses is one of the ways of addressing this gap immediately and the present programme has been designed to address this need of the ISM/NP industry and Academia.
