AJA 2023

The 4th Annual Jaseng Academic (AJA) Conference, held on August 13, 2023, in Seoul, South Korea, was a pivotal event in the realm of integrative medicine. Co-hosted by Jaseng Hospital of Korean Medicine and Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine, the conference gathered over 500 professionals, including Korean Medicine Doctors (KMDs), Medical Doctors (MDs), Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (DOs), acupuncturists, researchers, and students. The theme, "Perspectives on Integrative Medicine," marked a departure from previous conferences, embracing a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare.

The event highlighted the importance of holistic patient care and cross-disciplinary collaboration in healthcare. It offered a comprehensive overview of the current state of integrative medicine approached in manual medicine, evidence-based acupuncture treatment, and acupuncture research. The AJA conference served as a platform for global healthcare professionals to exchange ideas and perspectives, bridging the gap between diverse medical systems and promoting improved patient outcomes and well-being.
In 2023, marking its 4th event, AJA 2023 conference underwent a significant transformation. It evolved into a dynamic platform for sharing diverse perspectives and ideas from various medical systems, fostering discussions aimed at optimizing treatments for patients across a wide spectrum of topics. Each session was designed to embrace a multitude of subjects and viewpoints from different healthcare professions. The overarching goal shared among healthcare professionals was to prioritize the best possible health outcomes for patients, transcending the distinctions between Eastern and Western medical approaches.
