Dear Members and Prospective Members of TASTCMI,

You are cordially invited to join the Annual Meeting of the Telehealth Association for the Study of Traditional Chinese Medicine International (TASTCMI).

TASTCMI was established in 2022 during the 1st International Conference on Traditional Chinese Medicine Tele-healthcare to unite the global traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) community in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, it has become a platform for exchanging new research and practices among health professionals in the area of telehealthcare and TCM. Last year, TASTCMI co-organized the 2nd International Conference on Traditional Chinese Medicine Tele-healthcare, which was a tremendous success.

This year, we are holding a two-hour online annual meeting of our Association to keep our members up-to-date with the latest developments in Chinese medicine telehealthcare. We also aim to expand our membership to include business collaborators, educators and students of Chinese medicine and acupuncture, hoping to bridge the gap in the practice of TCM telehealthcare.

This meeting will introduce the TCM telehealthcare platform https://www.ecbothk.com and its app, Tongue Healthchecker, developed by EC BOT Limited, a start-up company supported by the Technology Start-up Support Scheme for Universities (TSSSU) of Hong Kong Baptist University. The meeting will start with a report from the Chairman, followed by topical discussions by participants.

If you are a health professional interested in telehealthcare and TCM, such as an acupuncturist or herbalist, I am confident that you will benefit from our meeting. We also extend a special invitation to TCM product suppliers, as you may be valuable collaborators in telehealthcare by sending your products directly to clients referred by their practitioners. Please visit our https://www.tastcmi.org to learn more about our organization.

Participation in this online conference is free, but you must register first on the above website. Important details are as follows:

Date: 16 November
Time: 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM (Hong Kong Time)
Platform: Online Zoom Meeting

I look forward to seeing you and hearing your ideas.

Sincerely,
Dr. Peter Zhang Shi Ping (Chairman)
