Overview

Medical Science in the Western world has advanced in remarkable leaps since the advent of modern medicine. Equally, the ancient healing sciences—despite their profound contributions—have gradually receded from mainstream practice. Over time, it has become clear that both traditions hold valuable insights, and their principles increasingly overlap. Ancient systems of medicine can be visualised as a pyramid, with disease prevention forming a broad and solid base. In contrast, modern medicine resembles an inverted pyramid, where the widest emphasis lies at the apex—on disease management. It is now time to bring these two approaches together. With this vision, scientists at Sharda University are collaborating with doctors and researchers from the UK and Japan to lead world-class research, uniting the strengths of both traditions. Their aspiration is to explore novel methods of healing and to uncover the science that lies beyond the genes.

To launch this initiative, a two-day seminar is being convened at Sharda University, bringing together an impressive array of scientists and doctors from India, the UK, and Japan. Through open-ended lectures and focused round-table discussions, they will lay the groundwork for this ambitious collaboration. The dialogue aims to identify innovative approaches that can advance medical science—particularly in the quest for increased longevity and new strategies for cancer prevention and cure.
