TRANSCRIPT
Goodbye 2013, Hello 2014!
Where did time go? It seems like it was just the
beginning of the semester, and now we are so close to the end
of Fall 2013. On that note, I hope everyone enjoyed this year.
I also want to thank everyone for their continued hard
work, participation, and support of our school newsletters.
Our newsletters would not be what they are without our staff,
faculty, clinic supervisors, current students, and alumni. I
hope that everyone enjoys reading our newsletters and that
our newsletters provide the Eastern School community with a
background of where our alumni, faculty, and clinic
supervisors came from and where they are today.
I look forward to working with more members of our
school’s community towards making our 2014 newsletters a
continued success. Stay tuned for next year’s newsletters for
more exciting events, articles, and spotlights.
Till next year!!!

Faculty Spotlight
Karen Lin
Above is a photo of Karen Lin
Karen graduated from the Eastern School of Acupuncture in 2012 and subsequently became a faculty member
teaching the clinical research class to third year students. As an acupuncture practitioner, she works with the Natural
Medicine and Rehabilitation staff to help people change their life style and improve their overall health. Recently, she
established Harmony Acupuncture and Wellness LLC in Cranford, New Jersey, as her own clinic to treat people with
various disease conditions.
Long before working in this field, Karen earned her M.D. degree from Guangzhou Medical University in China in
1992 and worked as a physician in the affiliated hospital. Two years later, she came to the United States to continue
her education and obtained her Master’s degree in biochemistry in 1996. Since then she has been working in the
biomedical research field. With her medical background and knowledge in science, her career as an acupuncture
practitioner finally took off. Truly, Karen has always had a passion for Chinese medicine since she was a child. She
witnessed her mother, who was also a doctor, using traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture to successfully
and effectively treat numerous patients with complicated diseases.
Karen believes that as a practitioner it is important to build a trusting relationship and understanding with the
patient as well as adopt and utilize different methods to customize the treatment plans for each individual. By
keeping these points in mind, Karen thinks one can successfully treat patients.
Karen sees the importance of acupuncture and herbal medicine, for they improve people’s overall health, mentally
and physically – as Plato once stated, “The part can never be well unless the whole is well.”
