On November 22, 2003, delegates of the 10th Annual Symposium on Complementary Healthcare packed into the main lecture hall of the Royal College of Physicians in London to take a momentous step in the history of complementary medicine research. Sara Warber (USA) and Edzard Ernst (UK) chaired the meeting and began by introducing the Working Group for the International Society of Complementary Medicine Research. In addition to Warber and Ernst, the Working Group included Alan Bensoussan (Australia), Brian Berman (USA), Vinjar Fonnebo (Norway), Harley Goldberg (USA), Katherine Gundling (USA), George Lewith (UK), Kate Thomas (UK), Marja Verhoef (Canada) and Hitoshi Yamashita (Japan). During the past few months, this group had communicated via e-mail to prepare the following purpose and goals for the proposed Society.
