Description

The Fellowship in Integrative Oncology course offers a pioneering and comprehensive education blending modern oncology with Ayurveda to deliver truly holistic cancer care. Developed in collaboration with Apollo AyurVAID, this interdisciplinary program equips oncologists, Ayurvedic physicians, general practitioners, educators, and researchers with skills to implement clinically integrated approaches across the entire cancer care continuum.

The course introduces the innovative Bimodal Referencing Strategy, enabling critical evaluation and synthesis of evidence from both modern medicine and Ayurvedic traditions. This co-existent, integrative model moves beyond parallel practice, supporting the design of safe, personalized care pathways covering prevention, diagnosis, treatment, nutrition, supportive care, palliative measures, and end-of-life management.

The curriculum starts with foundational modules on cancer biology, staging, and Ayurvedic pathogenesis (Samprapti), alongside principles of screening and diagnosis. Subsequent modules explore integrative treatment frameworks, adverse effect management, oncology and Ayurvedic therapeutic protocols, Panchakarma, and integrated clinical pathways.

Supportive care combines conventional onco-nutrition with Ayurvedic dietary principles to enhance patient outcomes. Emphasis on ethics, patient safety, and communication—particularly for end-of-life decisions—prepares practitioners for complex clinical situations.

The program also focuses on research literacy with modules on evidence-based integrative oncology, study design, and appraisal of emerging treatments. The culminating case-based learning module applies integrative principles across cancers such as breast, leukemia, prostate, and pediatric types, enhancing clinical decision-making skills.

Accredited by GAPIO, this course meets rigorous educational standards to ensure quality, relevance, and practical value for healthcare professionals.

Upon successful completion of the course, a recognized certificate will be awarded, empowering participants to confidently deliver holistic, evidence-informed cancer care, lead innovation in integrative oncology, improve patient-centered outcomes, and foster interdisciplinary collaboration.
