Always fascinated by biochemistry, which he studied at Cambridge, he combines his continuing scientific interests with a busy clinical practice. He has published more than 200 primary research papers.
"He leads the internationally respected Integrated Medicine research group within the medical school’s department of primary medical care which is part of the NIHR national school for primary care research.
"Professor Lewith’s research is currently focused on differentiating the specific from the non-specific effects of treatment and developing models that will help to explain the patient-perceived benefits of a variety of complementary medical interventions. He is currently focusing on pain, arthritis and cancer as illness models investigating the effects of acupuncture, healing, homeopathy and herbal medicines."[1]
