Abstract: Integrative medicine gained prominence as an approach combining traditional medicine systems with appropriate use of evidence-based traditional therapies alongside standard medical treatment. Established in 2016 at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India, the Centre for Integrative Medicine and Research (CIMR) was envisioned to provide patient-centered care, serving as a bridge between traditional Indian medicine, yoga, and conventional medicine. CIMR fosters scientific validation through rigorous clinical trials and evidence generation. In alignment with this vision, CIMR hosted the 1 st International Conference on Advances in Integrative Medicine 2025: Ancient Inspiration, Modern Evidence on March 7–8, 2025, bringing together researchers, academicians, and practitioners of conventional medicine and the Ayush system.

The conference featured workshops and hands-on training in research methodology, basic life support, and rejuvenative yoga, equipping participants with skills in clinical research and emergency care. Sessions covered diverse disciplines, including Cardiovascular health, Neurology, Psychiatry, Maternal health, Metabolic disorders, and Ayurvedic advancements, alongside panel discussions with experts, fostering scientific dialogue and collaboration. This event provided a global platform for advancing integrative medicine, facilitating meaningful discussions on harmonizing traditional and modern healthcare approaches.
