After studying English and Education at Cambridge University, Philippa worked as a special needs teacher and early years family adviser. Whilst her own four girls were young, she trained as a homeopath and was startled by the effectiveness of homeopathic treatment for some of her former pupils. So she amalgamated her two professions specialising in the homeopathic treatment of children with neurodevelopmental and behavioural disorders.
Trying to understand the evidence issues surrounding homeopathy, she completed a BSc in Homeopathy; an MSc in Research Methodology in Psychology; and a PhD in public health, supervised by Dr Clare Relton. During these she conducted a consecutive comparative case series of homeopathic treatment for children with ADHD; and a pilot pragmatic RCT comparing the effectiveness of treatment by homeopaths or nutritional therapists for ADHD with treatment as usual.
Philippa is dedicated to providing good quality, real life research evidence with the aim of improving health outcomes, and works with therapists, academics and trialists to this end. She is a Research Fellow at St Mary’s University where she teaches on the Chronic Disease Management MSc, is currently managing a trial of Kefir for ADHD, and hopes soon to conduct homeopathy research.

Dr. André Saine graduated in 1982 from the National College of Naturopathic Medicine in Portland, Oregon, with the objective to specialize in homeopathy.
The main thrust of Dr. Saine’s clinical work is the treatment of patients with serious pathology, which he began during his internship in his father’s clinic in 1978. He showed over the years that it is relatively easy to deal with patients with the most serious infectious, autoimmune and mental diseases. He has recently pushed the limits of homeopathy by documenting phenomenal results in patients with Parkinson’s diseases, genetic diseases, such as cystic fibrosis and retinitis pigmentosa, Alzheimer’s disease, acromegaly and stage III and IV cancer.
In addition to his private practice in Montreal, he spent a great deal of time teaching and writing. He co-founded of the Canadian Academy of Homeopathy (CAH) in 1986 and has since been its Dean and main instructor. The CAH offers postgraduate programs for professionals looking to deepen their knowledge of genuine homeopathy.
In 2005, Dr. Saine co-founded the Materia Medica Pura Project whose goal is to update the homeopathic materia medica and repertories for the first time since the monumental works of Constantine Hering and T.F. Allen over 130 years ago.
He writes extensively and just completed two books, Risks and Benefits of Vaccination—A Holistic Perspective—Do your Own Thinking, but First Inform Yourself, and The Use of Medicines for the Prevention of Epidemic Diseases—Scientific Evidence of the Efficacy of Belladonna to Prevent Scarlet Fever—A Systematic Review with its Documentation and Narratives.
He has also been busy writing for many years two monumental works, namely, first, Lessons in Pure Homeopathy, From the Writings of Hahnemann's Best Student and Medicine Most Successful Practitioner, which overviews the practice of pure homeopathy and its evolution over the centuries since Hahnemann and through the work of Adolph Lippe; and second, by documenting the extraordinary results obtained by homeopathy in times of epidemics in The Weight of Evidence.
Dr. Saine has confronted skeptics in public debates in universities on four occasions, which can all be viewed on the net.

Dr Rajan Sankaran, MD (Hom), is an internationally renowned thinker, teacher and writer of the homoeopathic system of medicine from Mumbai (India). He graduated from the CMP Homeopathic Medical College in Mumbai where he was later associate professor for 25 years.
Dr Sankaran is reputed to be a clear and original thinker; best known for his innovative concepts in homoeopathy. His understanding of disease as a delusion followed by his discovery of newer miasms, classification of diseased states into kingdoms (viz. plant, mineral and animal) and the seven levels of experience, brought in much more clarity into understanding diseased states.
This method, popular as ‘Sensation method’ has now evolved into a more comprehensive and synergistic approach, which strongly advocates to encompass and integrate the old, classical and traditional approaches with the latest advances.
Dr Sankaran’s research and extensive clinical practice has led him to much deeper level of understanding grouped together as WISE processes (Witnessing Inner Song Experience); which are used in homoeopathic case-taking and also in health workshops for larger community.
Apart from India, Dr Sankaran teaches in several countries. Amongst his students are some of the well-known teachers of Homoeopathy and heads of several homoeopathic schools and colleges.
Dr Sankaran has written 22 books, many of which are translated in several languages. He is also the developer & innovator of a Case-Analysis Software Program called ‘Vital Quest’. He heads ‘the other song—International Academy of Advanced Homoeopathy’, in Mumbai. Dr Sankaran is also a guide to ‘Prana: The Homoeopathy Yoga Centre’ in Pune. Dr Sankaran is a trustee for ‘Homoeopathic research and charities’, which aims to create a holistic health wellness centre ‘Sampoornam’.
Dr Sankaran lives and practices in Mumbai (India)
