Integrated Health Directors & Presidents

Since its formation in 1991 as a council reporting directly to the ASMBS Board of Directors, the Integrated Health (IH) Section has played a vital role in ensuring that the perspectives of integrated health professionals remain central to our mission. As defined in the ASMBS Bylaws, the IH Section has always maintained its own representative council leadership to represent its member category at the highest levels of the Society. Over time, the title of this lead role has evolved, but the responsibility and purpose of this leadership position have remained consistent throughout. This enduring structure preserves IH representation on the Board of Directors and ensures that IH voices continue to shape ASMBS governance, growth, and success.
