New UC Irvine College of Health Sciences Focused on Interdisciplinary Integrative Health

A gift from the Samueli Foundation will name the new UC Irvine Susan and Henry Samueli College of Health Sciences, the first university-based health sciences enterprise to incorporate integrative health research, teaching and patient care across its schools and programs.

Integrative health redefines the relationship between the practitioner and patient by focusing on the whole person and the whole community. It is informed by scientific evidence and makes use of all appropriate preventatives, therapeutic and lifestyle approaches, and healthcare professionals and disciplines to promote optimal health and wellness.
