Directed by Dr. Peter D'Adamo, the COEGM is a teaching clinic that researches cutting-edge genomic approaches to health.
In 2011, Dr. Peter D'Adamo and the College of Naturopathic Medicine co-created the Center of Excellence in Generative Medicine. Beginning in 2012, the Center will research, develop and employ the tools of systems analysis, molecular biology and bioinformatics to better understand the unique and complex self-healing behaviors that are the basis of naturopathic philosophy and therapy. All naturopathic students participate directly in the Center via programs in clinical practicum, investigation, symposia and didactics that are integrated throughout the four year curriculum. The Center of Excellence in Generative Medicine is a frontiers-focused biomedical initiative without parallel or equivalent in any other school of medicine.
Generative medicine employs the tools of systems biology, including network theory, complexity theory and bioinformatics (a type of information technology) to better understand the complex behaviors seen in both health and disease. These behaviors go beyond simple cause-and-effect relationships and provide for a better understanding of the relationships between the individual parts, whether they are genes, cell organelles, organ systems or even an individual's place in society. Naturopathic systems analysis can provide better approaches to safer and more individualized treatments of sickness and the enhancement of well-being
