The conference is sponsored by the Academic Consortium for Integrative Medicine and Health (Consortium), which represents over 75 academic health centers and health systems in the U.S., Canada, Australia, Brazil, and Mexico, with programs in integrative health. This conference will showcase original scientific research involving complementary and integrative health therapies, using keynote and plenary presentations, posters, symposia and workshops. Basic science, clinical, and health service researchers will present original research and moderate panel presentations selected through a peer-review process. Leaders in the field have agreed to provide keynote addresses and other leaders will be invited to moderate concurrent research presentations. The planning for the conference is overseen by the Oversight/ Organizing Committee, which is composed of the Chairs of the Program, Scientific Review, and Finance Committees, together with the Chair and Vice Chair of the Consortium. The Program Committee, with 14 members representing diverse areas in integrative health, has key responsibility for planning the meeting content, including selecting the plenary speakers and meeting symposia. The Oversight/Organizing Committee and Program Committee members are leaders from the conventional and complementary medical research communities. Proposals for sessions (symposia, featured discussions and workshops) have been solicited, as were submission of research abstracts. Research abstracts will undergo peer-review for quality in a process conducted by the Scientific Review Committee using a pool of 80-100 expert reviewers through a de-identified peer review process. This will be the 7th scientific conference sponsored by the Consortium. The most recent conference, in 2018 in Baltimore, MD, had 908 attendees, representing over 150 academic institutions and organizations from 26 countries. There were 784 scientific abstracts submitted, of which 90 were accepted for oral presentations, and 564 for poster presentations.
