Nargarjuna Research Foundation has been formed to advance the cause of Ayurveda through scientific research, dissemination of information and promotion of herbal and medicinal gardens. The TRUST, which has eminent Doctors and Scientists on its panel of trustees, is an embodiment of our constant search for deeper knowledge and newer ways of healing. The basic objective is to spread the message of Ayurveda far and wide and to bring this versatile medical system closer to people. Also, for providing directions in fundamental research in ayurveda and establishing standards and quality control parameters. The foundation encourages and supports fellowship based research in colleges and other organizations, publication of books on ayurveda and related subjects, holding of conferences and seminars, workshops and short term Ayurvedic courses for allopathic doctors and general public.
