Academic research, public lectures, and scholarly engagement in classical Jingfang (经方) medicine.
Academic Focus
My academic work centers on the study, interpretation, and clinical transmission of classical Jingfang
(经方) medicine, with an emphasis on clear theoretical structure and clinically grounded reasoning.
Rather than approaching Jingfang as a collection of isolated prescriptions, my research focuses on its
internal diagnostic logic, formula classification, and structured clinical decision-making. This work
integrates close reading of classical sources with long-term clinical observation and verification.
The Jingfang System
My approach presents Jingfang as a coherent and internally consistent medical system, encompassing pattern
differentiation, formula families, and structured treatment strategy. This includes clinical methodology—
such as diagnostic structure and treatment follow-through—as well as careful scholarly articulation for
cross-cultural understanding and international academic audiences.
