SWPH Conferences: Stellar Successes

|
In 2005 the Science of Whole Person Health and Second Qigong Summit was held on April 14–17 at the Holiday Inn Select, Bethesda, Maryland. The Qigong session was addressed by Congressman Chris Cannon (R-Utah). Some 50 papers were presented by speakers from all over the world. The conference featured two special workshops: Ayurvedic Healing and the Science of Electromagnetic Healing. The Robert Becker Award was instituted by FOH to recognize a major advance in WPH using a device based on electromagnetic or acoustic energies and awarded to Robert Becker, who gave his acceptance speech via telephone, since he could not attend.

The first of what was to become a series of conferences on “Science of Whole Person Healing” was held at the Holiday Inn Bethesda from March 28–30. The conference brought together, possibly for the first time, a genuinely interdisciplinary mix of senior scientists and engineering familiar with the literature of WPH; individual practitioners and researchers working on ancestral practices, or modern devices applicable to such practices; physicians conducting research in WPH practices; laity interested in the results; along with representatives of federal funding agencies.

... Drug Sales Bring Huge Profits, And Scrutiny, to Cancer Doctors
At a time when overall spending on prescription drugs is soaring, cancer specialists are pocketing hundreds of millions of dollars each year by selling drugs to patients—a practice that almost no other doctors follow. The cancer specialists can make huge sums—often the majority of their practice revenue—from the difference between what they pay for the drugs and what they charge insurers and government programs. But some private health insurers are now studying ways to reduce these profits, and the issue is getting close attention in Congress. Read more in Reed Abelson’s article in the Sunday, January 26, 2003 edition of the New York Times, also available online.
