Thank you for your participation in the Trans-NCI-NIH Conference on International Perspectives on Integrative Medicine for Cancer Prevention and Cancer Patient Management. The organizing committee would like to get an understanding if we achieved our aims and ideas for improvements for the future. The two main aims of the conference are: to 1) discuss the integration of traditional, complementary and alternative medicine (TCAM) with conventional cancer prevention and treatment approaches in global health and particularly in low-and-middle-income-countries (LMICs) thus forming new approaches to Integrative Oncology, and 2) discuss concrete examples and potential approaches for strengthening Integrative Oncology research in LMICs.

This survey should take approximately 8 minutes of your time.

Thanks for your collaboration. Conference Organizing Committee
