Approximately 70% of Australians use complementary medicines. In 2014 Melbourne, Australia's La Trobe University’s decision to accept funding from Swisse for a new centre to research alternative medicines sparked controversy. Whilst many people condemn complementary and alternative therapies because of a lack of clinical evidence, an urgent need exists for complementary therapies to be underwritten by rigorous scientific investigation. Why then, was this decision controversial?
