It’s challenging to put into words what makes the Integrative Medicine Conference a conference people return to year after year, but we’re going to try.

Swipe through and let us know what stands out to you.

Most importantly: Full conference registration is $595 through October 15. After that, the rate increases. ⬆️

IMC sold out last year. This year, we’ve expanded capacity as far as our venue allows, but space is still limited. If you’re planning to join us in AZ, we encourage you to register early.

Come for the CME. Stay for the community.

The mental and emotional health benefits of yoga are well-researched: it calms the nervous system, reduces the effects of stress, reduces symptoms of anxiety, improves mood, and promotes presence and focus.

Imagine if every school in the country offered yoga to its students on a regular basis. What might happen?

That is exactly what the Yoga for Youth study explores.

In the spring of 2026, 279 students, teachers, parents, and school staff took ten field trips to the university’s Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine.

For 65% of participants, it was their first encounter with yoga.

Post-survey reports show that 89% of participants felt significantly calmer after each session, with many adding comments on focus, enjoyment, and mindfulness.

The research on the effects of yoga for school-age children continues this year with high school students. Supported by the Greer Foundation, this ongoing study is a partnership between the University of Arizona Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine, the College of Public Health Zuckerman Family Center, and the Global Health Institute, along with the Sunnyside Unified School District, the second-largest school district in Arizona.

Some of the most incredible integrative medicine research is being conducted right here at the University of Arizona Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine.

Meet Winthrop Police Department Lieutenant Sarko Gergerian, our guest on the Body of Wonder Podcast 🚨

You may be wondering what an LEO is doing on a medical podcast.

Lt. Gergerian happens to be a leading advocate in psychedelic medicine. Once a philosophy major at Northwestern, today he is both a police officer and a psychedelic therapist.

His focus: the mental health of first responders, a sector that is often held to the strictest of standards when it comes to access to therapeutic drugs.

Lt. Gergerian talks to hosts Dra. Andrew Weil and Victoria Maizes about the urgent call to give first responders legal access to the same psychedelic therapies being fast-tracked for veterans and general public.

Join the conversation on the Body of Wonder podcast, wherever you listen to podcasts.

Mind-body medicine is an entire module of the Integrative Medicine Fellowship and woven in to many aspects of the program.

It works in hospitals systems, rural areas, online clinics, and in telehealth. For the most part, mind-body approaches are free or very low cost, easy to do, and present little to no risk.

And they work, effectively and tremendously.

Breathwork.
Meditation.
PMR.
Prayer.
Guided imagery.
Biofeedback.
Yoga.
Tai chi.
Awe walks.
Music therapy.

These are just a few of the modalities we cover. Evidence, clinical application, mechanism of action.

Bring mind-body medicine into your practice at awcim.arizona.edu

You don’t know what you don’t know.

Stephen Dahmer credits the University of Arizona Integrative Medicine Fellowship with opening the door to the healing-centered medicine he had been looking for as a young physician.

Integrative medicine has taken Dr. Dahmer all over the world. To clinics in rural communities and under canopies South America, to meetings in DC on whole-person care policy and research labs studying sleep, psychedelics, and cancer care.

For these reasons and more, he is dedicated to training as many practitioners as possible through the The University of Arizona part-time, remote fellowship, certificate program, elective rotation for medical students and residents, and add-on online training for residents at the University of Arizona Integrative Medicine Center
