Yo San University was founded by brothers Dr. Daoshing Ni and Dr. Mao Shing Ni, who named the University after their grandfather, Master Yo-San Ni, a healer and teacher in the Taoist tradition. The Ni family enjoys a rare, unbroken lineage of 38 generations of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners. Our first first class of eight students began their studies in January 1989.
Doctoral candidates are required to complete original research that has the potential to make a contribution to the Traditional Chinese Medicine. Their Capstone Research Projects are presented and defended in their final term. Links to the written presentations are given below:
