New Eight-Year Homeopathy Cohort Study Invites Practitioners to Participate

What might we discover if practitioners across North America followed their clients’ health over eight years?

You see what happens in your practice, one client at a time. Imagine what we could learn if homeopaths brought those observations together in a coordinated, long-term research effort.

We have HUGE news! The Institute for the Advancement of Homeopathy (IAH) has launched the ethics-approved Individualized Homeopathy Longitudinal Cohort Study through the Practitioner-Generated Research Network (PGRN). This will be the first ever homeopathy cohort study in North America! 

The impacts of several Western European cohort studies were far-reaching and have informed our clinical practice and legitimacy in important ways. Now it is our moment to do the same in North America. We are now recruiting practitioners to invite eligible existing clients receiving individualized, adjunctive homeopathic care for chronic complaints.

Over eight years, the study will collect information about changing health concerns, quality of life, and patterns of care. A shared dataset will allow researchers to investigate questions across many chronic complaints and wellbeing indicators rather than focusing on one diagnosis.

Your everyday clinical work can contribute to research that may inform future practice, education, and investigations – something no single practitioner could accomplish alone.

Practitioner recruitment is open now. The client enrollment window lasts one year from the first participant enrolled; participating practitioners support study follow-ups for up to eight years.
