Arnaud Versluys is one of the very few Western scholars to have received his full medical training in China. He spent more than ten years at the Chinese medical universities of Wuhan, Beijing, and Chengdu, where he obtained his bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees in Chinese medicine. He also trained in traditional discipleship for many years. Versluys’ passion lies in the Han‑dynasty (200 CE) canonical style of Chinese medicine. In 2008, he founded the Institute of Classics in East Asian Medicine to offer postgraduate training in canonical Chinese medicine worldwide. Arnaud has a private practice in Portland, OR, as well as a part-time practice in New Orleans, LA.
