Global Advances in Integrative Medicine and Health (Global Advances) is the official publication of the Academic Consortium for Integrative Medicine & Health, whose mission is to advance integrative medicine and health through academic institutions and health systems.
Global Advances is a peer-reviewed, PubMed Central-indexed, open-access journal. We aim to advance the science and practice of integrative medicine and health by disseminating scientific information and promoting dialogue and collaboration among healthcare providers from various disciplines, practice patterns, and cultures. The journal’s goal is to further develop the evidence base of the latest knowledge of basic/translational, clinical, and epidemiological research on integrative medicine and health.
We consider integrative medicine and health to include approaches informed by evidence that reaffirm the importance of focus on the whole person and make use of all appropriate therapeutic and lifestyle approaches, healthcare professionals, and disciplines to achieve optimal health and healing.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to investigations of:
Interventions to promote health, resilience and well-being, prevent illness, and foster healthier lifestyles
Treatments for symptoms and disease that focus on whole-person approaches
Understanding mechanistic pathways involved in integrative therapies or whole person health
Strategies to prevent disease progression and provide palliative care
Lifestyle interventions to prevent and treat chronic illnesses
Biomarkers associated with responses to integrative health interventions
Epidemiology of integrative health practices and use
Qualitative experiences across integrative health
New tools, technologies, and/or methodologies used to drive innovation in integrative medicine
Health services research in the integrative medicine and health context
Policy, ethical, and economic issues relevant to integrative health and medicine
We are interested in research and study methodologies, as they relate to integrative medicine and health, across the spectrum from basic/translational science to clinical research (pilot, feasibility to PhaseI/II efficacy) to implementation and dissemination.
Letters to the editor, evidence-informed viewpoints, feature articles, and personal narrative essays may be considered.
