National University of Health Sciences

Although it originally began as a chiropractic educational institution, National University of Health Sciences (NUHS) now offers degree programs in chiropractic medicine, naturopathic medicine, acupuncture, Chinese medicine and biomedical sciences. The university also offers certificate programs for massage therapy and chiropractic assistants. National University of Health Sciences was founded as the "National School of Chiropractic" by John Fitz Allen Howard DC in 1906 in Davenport, Iowa."Our History - NUHS". http://www.nuhs.edu/about-us/our-profile/our-history/.  In 1908, the school moved to Chicago, because its founder desired a more scientifically rigorous academic culture. Another reason that Howard relocated to the Chicago area was that he received an agreement allowing his students to have access to anatomical study of cadavers at the nearby Cook County Hospital. After moving to Chicago in 1908 and being chartered and incorporated by the State of Illinois, the college's first home was on Congress Street across from Presbyterian Hospital.

  • Maria Ly is quite literally a Rock Star. You’ll often find her hanging off a 5.13a grade rock climbing route, she is the rock star co-founder of Skimble (which is incubated by Rock Health), and you can find her rock formation photography featured in Outside Magazine.

  • March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.

  • Mayank is an inventor and zebra-enthusiast. He developed Stripespotter, a biological barcode scanner for zebras, and is a part of the team behind Facebook insights. By way of India to Oman to the US, Mayank can be found behind the wheel of a red Porsche dreaming up his next big idea.
