THE VISION
Dr. Muqeem Khan
“I really believe that although the world is changing quickly, our bodies are not keeping up. Chemical-laden diets, food additives and hyper-connected lifestyles fuel a yearning for holistic wellness. Generative healing systems must rise to this challenge. By embracing innovation, they can offer solutions for human health. By adapting to the changing world, generative healing systems can become powerful allies in navigating the complexities of modern life.”

The research and qualification
-
Dr. Khan's doctoral research asks how living, oral traditions, pulse diagnosis, herbal pharmacopeia, the body postures of indigenous martial arts, can be documented without flattening them into text. His model proposes emerging technologies, including virtual and extended reality, as tools for transmission rather than replacement. He treats Intangible Cultural Heritage, language, poetry, dance, festival, and folklore remedies alike, as a form of infrastructure: community knowledge that has simply never been catalogued. Pulse diagnosis, learned first from his father and later from indigenous practitioners elsewhere, remains his central focus and the clinical foundation of Hakeem Mursaleen. Building on these foundations, his work explores the epistemological underpinnings of diagnosis (تشخيص) and prognosis (تقدمة المعرفة) within Unani medicine (Tibb-e-Unani).

In his PhD studies, he proposes a novel model for accessing and safeguarding indigenous methodologies, particularly non-codified or traditional knowledge like pulse diagnosis, indigenous methodology related to pharmacopeia and body posters in indigenous martial arts. He firmly believes that Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH), such as language, poetry, dances, festive events, and indigenous methodologies like folklore remedies and their pharmacopeia, serve as the keys to unlocking our community’s hidden treasures. He has taught multidisciplinary courses in the United States, the Middle East, and Pakistan. His main area of interest is pulse diagnosis, which he has learnt from his father Hakeem Mursaleen and various other indigenous sources around the world. He is a registered Tabib/Hakeem with the National Council for Tibb, Government of Pakistan. He documented, archived, and transmitted traditional knowledge, indigenous techniques, and Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) through technologies, such as Virtual/Augmented/Extended realities during his PhD studies at Charles Stuart University in Australia. He proposed a new model for access to indigenous methodologies, particularly non-codified or traditional knowledge like Pulse Diagnosis, to ensure the continuity of cultural knowledge. In his clinic, the goal is not just to suppress symptoms but to find the root imbalance.
