Professor Nesari said, “We are delighted to progress further our partnership with Western Sydney University and our collaborative research endeavours.”

“Prime Minister Narendra Modi said earlier this year at the Global Ayurveda Festival 2021, that ‘Ayurveda could rightly be identified as a holistic human science. The effect and power of Ayurveda and conventional medicine are tremendous, from the plants to your plate, from physical strength to mental wellbeing.’

The appointment of the chair is jointly funded by the Ministry of AYUSH and Western Sydney University and anticipated to commence early in 2022.

Professor Glover said the new academic chair will elevate the existing research partnership between All Indian Institute of Ayurveda and Western Sydney University’s NICM Health Research Institute and will have a significant impact on the scientific evaluation and internationalisation of Ayurvedic medicine.
