FTV TV news: Israeli doctor in Taiwan to deepen knowledge of acupuncture

Gil Ton, an Israeli doctor, has moved to Taiwan with his family to pursue a PhD in acupuncture at China Medical University in Taichung, renowned for its Chinese medicine and pharmacology programs. His studies are not only deepening his understanding of Chinese medicine but also enhancing his proficiency in the Chinese language, as he learns the traditional names for acupuncture points—a practice that differs from the numerical system used in Israel. This educational journey is broadening his medical knowledge and fostering a growing appreciation for Taiwanese culture. Gil expresses his love for both Chinese medicine and Taiwan itself, contemplating the possibility of remaining in Taiwan for teaching or research post-PhD.
