Abstract:
The International Congress of Complementary Medicine Research (ICCMR) 2013was held in London, UK, on April 11-13, 2013. This conference was organized by the Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine and the University of Southampton School of Medicine. There were 450 participants at the conference, which offered 6 workshops, 8plenary sessions, 10 symposiums, 90 oral presentations, and 255 posters. These presentations were not only about acupuncture but also a wide range of traditional medicine, integrative medicine (IM), and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). It became clear that the spread and awareness of IM and CAM in the EU varied depending on the country.
