The "First International Conference on Traditional Chinese
Medicine: Science, Regulation and Globalization" was held from
August 30 to September 2, 2000 at the University of Maryland at
College Park, Maryland. There were approximately 250 participants
from the Peoples Republic of China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the
United States. This objective of this conference was to promote
international collaboration for the modernization of Traditional
Chinese herbal medicines (TCM) and their introduction into the
global health care system. It was mainly sponsored by the Ministry
of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China and the
NllI National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine
(NCCAM). It was organized by Dr. William Tai, then director of the
Institute of Global Chinese Affairs at the University of Maryland
and Dr. Yuan Lin, president of Marco Polo Technologies, Bethesda,
MD. This conference was conceived by Dr. Tai two years earlier
recognizing that this was an appropriate time and also the unique
location of the University of Maryland. Today, there is a growing
recognition of the of alternative medicine in modem societies and
the rapid loss of importance knowledge about traditional methods
for the treatment of the multitude of human illnesses found

thousands of years; and many of its formulations are well defined.
