Autoimmune disorders to take centre stage at upcoming Ayurveda conference at Udupi

An upcoming international conference in Udupi, Karnataka, will explore the integration of Ayurvedic principles with modern immunology to treat autoimmune disorders. The event aims to generate scientific evidence for integrative healthcare approaches.
Why it matters
As autoimmune diseases rise globally, exploring complementary medical systems through scientific research could offer new avenues for patient care and quality of life.
As autoimmune diseases emerge as one of the fastest-growing public health challenges worldwide, researchers are increasingly looking beyond conventional approaches to understand why the body’s immune system turns against itself. An international conference slated to take place in September in Udupi, Karnataka, aims to examine whether principles from Ayurveda can complement modern immunology in addressing these complex disorders.
The sixth International Conference on Translational Ayurveda in Autoimmune Disorders, ‘Kshamatvam 2026’, will be held at the Sri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara College of Ayurveda, Hospital and Research Centre (SDMAHRC), Udupi, from September 29 to October 1, 2026. The event will begin with pre-conference workshops on September 29, followed by two days of scientific deliberations.
