NIH's Alternative Medicine Chief Visits NLM
Dr. Stephen Straus, NLM Staff Discuss Future
Collaborations
Dr. Stephen E. Straus, Director of the National Center for
Complementary and Alternative Medicine, met with Dr. Lindberg and
senior staff at the National Library of Medicine on June 6th, to
discuss how NCCAM and NLM can enhance access to information about
complementary and alternative medicine, building on previous
collaboration between NLM and the NIH Office of Alternative
Medicine. While at NLM, Dr. Straus visited the exhibit, Classics of
Traditional Chinese Medicine in the NLM Collection, which was
organized by Young Rhee, Margaret Feng, and Yoshiko Doherty of the
Library's staff. NLM's collection has strong coverage of both
historical and contemporary works dealing with complementary and
alternative medicine.
