The large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN will soon provide us with experimental evidence of a revolutionary vision of our universe developed since Einstein’s Theory of Relativity and Quantum Physics. The implications of a century of intellectual advancement in human knowledge has not yet influenced the system methodology of medicine today. Evidence Based Medicine is still a largely Newtonian mechanistic worldview of empirical objectivity, which is outdated by the Standard Model in physics and the String Theory of extra dimensions.

Developing from my previous thesis on the dialectical thoughts of Chinese medicine and Hegel’s dialectical logic of progressivism, I am proposing a synthesis of the discoveries of ‘New Physics’ with the dialectical thoughts of Chinese medicine as the new conceptual direction for the modernisation of our existing medical system and methodology.

Medicine must keep up with the latest discoveries in the theory of knowledge. In clinical practice, treating human beings with multi-dimensional aspects of existence requires a medicine capable of dealing with factors beyond physiology, such as placebo effects.

‘New Physics’ and Dialectical Thoughts may herald a new direction for the next paradym in medicine.

      自从爱因斯坦相对论和量子力学问世以来,人们对宇宙的认识不断深入,尤其是在欧洲核子研究中心建造的大型强子对撞机在不久的将来会提供一系列的实验证据,使人们对宇宙有一种焕然一新的认识。然而近一个世纪人类智慧的发展以及知识的积累并未对医学方法论产生较大的影响。循证医学仍是当前主要的医学方法论,它建立在以客观事物经验观察为主的牛顿力学基础上。与最新的标准模型和弦理论相比,它显然已经过时了。
      本人从前发表过多篇有关中医辨证思维以及黑格尔辩证逻辑推进论方面的文章,在此基础上我想提出一种新理念,它是对新物理学和中医辨证思维的一种综合,希望以此作为现代医学系统方法论的研究方向。
      医学必须跟上知识理论的新发现。人类生存在多维空间中,因此人们迫切需要一种医学,它能够解决生理以外各种因素所致的疾患,而不仅仅是西医所说的安慰剂作用。
      “新物理学”和辨证思维的结合向我们展示了未来医学模式新的发展方向。
