Searching for the Truth, a discussion on Chinese Medicine Study with Michael Brown S3 ep2

Chinese Medicine Podcast

Marie chats to Acupuncturist, Herbalist and Translator, Michael Brown about trends in training of Chinese medicine in the university/college system in this episode. We discuss his passions about learning, memorisation and how students in undergraduate TCM programs can get more out of their studies. This conversation is part of the new series, CM Study Buddy - helping you learn and navigate the world of Chinese medicine as a student. This would be really useful for students in the USA, Australia, UK and Europe, and couldn't be more timely since there are many students now in self-isolation or stuck at home in quarantine. Its a great time to get stuck into learning about our shared passion of Chinese medicine. Some of the topics discussed include the need for study, how to utilise classical sources in undergraduate study of Chinese medicine. How memorisation can help you in the clinic setting and Michael shares some of his own tips for studying and learning the complex systems of Chinese medicine.

If it is an emergency call 000 in Australia.
