What are NAMA Grand Rounds?

Grand Rounds are a formal meeting of Ayurvedic vaidyas and doctors showcasing the art and science of Ayurveda in a case presentation and clinical discussion. This event will incorporate clinical discussion of two cases on the topic of Asthivaha Srotas Vyadhi in Women, which will highlight the complexity and high standards of clinical Ayurvedic practice. 

Speaker Presentations

Speaker presentations must be supported by classical Ayurveda references, demonstrate a thorough understanding of the disease process (pathogenesis), and include a diagnosis (nidana) and an explanation of the appropriate treatment (chikitsa) and relevant research if applicable. Each presentation will be allotted 45 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session.

Speakers will present at the Ayurvedic Doctor level. All NAMA members are invited to attend the Grand Rounds. Two (2) PACE credits will be awarded to Professional Members who remain logged in for the duration of the event.
