Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference in Malaysia is pleased to announce the panelist for Thematic Panel Discussion Session 4 with the title of “Bridging the Gap between Traditional & Modern Practices in Healthcare: A Possibility”
Malaysia is listed as 12th in the world according to the National Biodiversity Index as a country that is rich in natural resources. Some of these natural resources can be used as an alternative medicine which varies according to class, culture and religion. In the development of modern technology, we believe it is our responsibility to bring the traditional knowledge from being forgotten and continue to benefit the world for the health and wellness of the society.
This session will unravel some of the society’s perception, trends, challenges, solutions and vision to embrace and bridge both traditional and modern practices in Malaysia’s healthcare. At the end of this session, the panelist will share their vision on the possibility for traditional and modern practices to be adopted together in public and private sector.
