About this session

What can a 5,000-year-old medical system teach future doctors? This talk explores Ayurveda, an ancient Indian medicine that sees health as balance between body, mind, spirit, and the world around us. It compares Ayurvedic principles with modern medicine and offers insight into how alternative medicine can be integrated into your future practice and even your everyday life.

Dr Remya Salimkumar is a BSMS graduate and current Psychiatric Clinical Teaching Fellow. Her South Indian roots sparked a passion for Ayurveda, which she explored further during a one-month elective in Ayurvedic medicine.

This talk is part of the BSMS Outreach Monthly Lecture Series and will be conducted via Zoom. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide certificates of attendance for this event.
