The mission of the UCSF Osher Center for Integrative Health is to nurture health and inspire well-being in all people. Our educational programming, formerly known as Osher Mini Medical School for the Public, has been reimagined as Osher WISE (Well-being and Integrative Science for Everyone). This public education program offers courses on integrative health topics that are current and compelling, providing an opportunity for community members to become active, informed participants in their own health and well-being journey.
