We are a multidisciplinary team of academics and researchers at the University of British Columbia and the University of Alberta, Canada.
Funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, we are studying the risks associated with alternative health practices as well as the demographic and psychosocial factors that may help explain why people engage in them.
