FUNDED RESEARCH

Chris' research has involved experimental pain and acupuncture, reliability of Chinese medicine diagnosis including tongue diagnosis and the influence of research ethics on the design of acupuncture and herbal medicine studies. He has been involved in several acupuncture clinical studies involving the efficacy of acupuncture on male sub-fertility, hepatitis C and stress. He has just completed a clinical trial regarding the effect of acupuncture on lateral elbow pain and a Delphi study on a rating scale for assessing the adequacy of acupuncture in clinical trials.
