Perlmutter and Bland to Lead 2027 Integrative Healthcare Symposium
The Integrative Healthcare Symposium has tapped neurologist David Perlmutter and functional medicine pioneer Jeffrey Bland to steer its 22nd annual gathering. Set for February 18–20, 2027, at the New York Hilton Midtown, the event aims to bridge the widening gap between rapidly advancing scientific research and current clinical practice.
Perlmutter, a board-certified neurologist and author, emphasized that the symposium intends to move beyond mere discussion, focusing instead on critical research that challenges outdated clinical assumptions. Bland, who founded the Institute for Functional Medicine, noted that the program is designed to facilitate skill-building while connecting attendees with leaders in personalized healthcare. By prioritizing clinical relevance, the leadership team hopes to provide practitioners with actionable strategies to improve health outcomes directly in their own offices.
