After earning her doctorate in neuroscience at Harvard University, Laurie Regan became a naturopathic doctor and the dean of the College of Classical Chinese Medicine at the National University of Natural Medicine for over a decade. Laurie harmonizes contemporary science with Eastern philosophies and Chinese medicine.
