2020 ARRC symposium:
CANCELLED
It is with great regret that we are now having to cancel the ARRC symposium 2020. Given the current global pandemic status for the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak, the decision to cancel the 2020 ARRC Symposium has been taken in order to protect the health and wellbeing of the attendees and speakers.
Due to the nature of venue bookings, we have to cancel rather than postpone the event, since a definitive future date is not available to us at this stage.
Those of you that had booked a place will receive a full refund shortly.
What happens next?
We are currently examining options around rescheduling the event, and will inform you as soon as the plans have solidified.
We are delighted to invite you to attend 2020’s acupuncture research symposium. This will be the 22nd, with a magnificent line-up and a host of networking opportunities.
As ever, we have an international line up with Jianping Liu, professor at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine coming to talk on Acupuncture Trials in China: Pros and Cons. Terje Alraek, professor at Kristiania University College, Oslo will present on Analysis of menopausal hot flush studies: sham devices vs real life acupuncture and Acupuncture for cancer related fatigue – a new study in Norway. Other confirmed speakers are Hugh MacPherson, Professor of Acupuncture Research, University of York and John Hughes, Director of Research, Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine.
The venue, close by Chancery Lane in central London, is the same as last year. Great location, interesting building, a space that works for everyone, a hot buffet lunch and a drinks reception afterwards.
Again this time the poster presenters will also be offered a quick-fire presentation slot: please get in touch if you’re thinking of bringing a poster.
We look forward to seeing you in March.

Research Manager
