Please support the acupuncture research facilitated by Acubriefs.com.
You can do so either by donating to The
Best of Both Worlds Foundation, a public Tax Exempt 501(c)(3)
charity or through personal/business expenses by taking out a $60
annual subscription to Acubriefs'
Librarian Service.
Acubriefs.com was established
by the Medical Acupuncture Research Foundation (MARF) of the American
Academy of Medical Acupuncture (AAMA) in 2000 to make available
online the most comprehensive database of acupuncture references
in the English language. Since then Acubriefs has continuously added
references from numerous sources, expanded its Personal Librarian
Services, and published monthly reviews and current citations via
email and its website.
Currently, the Acubriefs
Database contains over 21,000 citations on acupuncture and related
techniques (TENS, laser therapy, moxibustion, etc.).
Our sources are:
- Medline-indexed journals
- Non-indexed journals published in the US, the UK and China
- Web-based sources
- Acubriefs' exclusive source of translated citations and abstracts
from China
- Clinical trials underway in the US
- News articles
Our Librarian
Services have expanded and are available to researchers, students
and clinicians needing assistance with searches and bibliography
development. If you are seeking help putting together a bibliography
we are the place to go!
We continue to enjoy the support of SEIRIN-USA
and Lhasa/OMS Acupuncture
Supplies, and have added Acufinder.com,
TCMtests.com,
The
Arizona Chapter of the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture
as sponsors. We are very thankful as well for several individual
donors.
We would like to be able to carry on and expand the quality of
the Acubriefs database, and are hence asking for your support. If
you recognize the importance of maintaining this database both from
a research perspective as well as a clinical guide, and source for
your patients please support our efforts. Our intention is to allow
this valuable database to remain free and readily accessible to
all.
