Translating the power of TCM into patients' hope

摘要：

In ancient times,Chinese medical practitioners tasted medicinal herbs to test the efficacy of these herbs in treating diseases,and from the practical experience the pioneers improved their medical skills.The unique system of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM),which has evolved over thousands of years,therefore represents one of the oldest paradigms of translational medicine in the world.TCM has been widely and successfully used to treat illnesses from inflammation to cancer and retains an important role in the healthcare system of China today.However,challenges in the development of TCM have become clear in recent years,and major efforts must be made to further improve the current TCM system.
