Education and Practice
José Miguel Mullen graduated from the Medical School of the University
of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
He spent the next four years in America.
The first two at St. Vincent's Hospital, Erie, PA, doing his Rotating
Internship and one year of Surgical Residence.
He was then a Pathology Resident for one year in the George Washington
University Hospital, and also Assistant to the Chair of Pathology in the George
Washington School of Medicine, Washington, DC.
During his last year in America, he trained in Clinical Cancer Chemotherapy and
Clinical Pharmacological Cancer Research, in Massachusetts General Hospital,
Boston, MA, and the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital in Jamaica Plains, MA. All with a
Fellowship from Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.
The following year was spent at the Chester Beatty Research Institute and the
Royal Cancer Hospital, in London, England, training in Clinical Cancer
Chemotherapy and Cancer Research in cell cultures. At that time he designed,
and started, his first Research Project that involved Human hormones and cells
from Human feminine breast adenocarcinoma in vitro.
Dr. Mullen returned to Argentina in 1961, and started his private Oncology and
General Medical practice that he continued until 1982, when he became a
Homeopathic Physician.
As an Oncologist, he also worked at the Hospital de Clínicas, University of
Buenos Aires, Argentina, until 1972, doing Clinical Cancer Research. At that
time, he felt that his Research work would be more useful at a Laboratory
level.
From 1972 onwards, in the Institute of Pharmacology, National Department of
Health, Buenos Aires, Argentina, Dr. Mullen developed several of his own
Research ideas, using for that purpose inbred BALB/c mice and Sarcoma 180.
Dr. Mullen took several Post Graduate Courses during his years as Cancer
Researcher. Courses included, Cancer Chemotherapy, at the Sloan Kettering
Research Institute, New York, NY; Use of Radioisotopes in Biology, National
Atomic Energy Commission, Buenos Aires, Argentina; Calculus and Biostatistics,

Toxicology, University of Texas in Galveston, TX.

to the IX International Cancer Congress in Tokyo, Japan. At that time, Dr.
Mullen visited Cancer Research Laboratories and Centers in the University of
Tokyo.

West Germany, to visit the Medischinische Klinik, University of Köln, Innere
Klinik für Tumorforschung, Essen, Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, Heidelberg,
Medischinische Klinik, University of Tübingen, and finally Univ. Frauenklinik,
Hamburg-Eppendorff, in Germany.

Institute for Toxicological Research, Jefferson, AK, Department of Medical
Genetics, University of Southern Alabama, Mobile AL; Department of Preventive
Medicine, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX, and the Cancer
Institute of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA.
By the late 1970's, Dr. Mullen became aware of the fact that cancer, as well as
every other disease, has more to do with the Whole Human Being than with only
ill organs and systems, and also that the Allopathic Medicine he was familiar
with had no way of dealing with such a perspective.
This awareness made Dr. Mullen begin a quest that would ultimately conduct him
to Homeopathy.
Before finding Homeopathy, he took Seminars and Workshops dealing with Gestalt,
Reich techniques, Psychocybernetics, Sexology, Nutrition, Natural and Folk
Medicine, Hydrotherapy and Massage.
He also took a course on Acupuncture, in the Asociación Argentina de
Acupuntura, Buenos Aires, Argentina; and two seminars on Anthroposophic
Medicine in the Sociedad Antroposófica Argentina, conducted by Profs. Drs. Otto
Wolff, M.D. and Michaela Glockler, M.D., Pediatrician, both of the Herdecke
Krankenhouse, Schlichten, Germany.
In 1982, Dr. Mullen was accepted as a student into the accredited Post Graduate
School of the Asociación Médica Homeopática Argentina, Buenos Aires, Argentina,
where he formally studied for 3 years, and where he also took two Post Graduate
courses on Materia Medica Homeopathica. He was granted the title of Homeopathic
Physician in Argentina after successfully passing two exams.
Dr. Mullen has been doing Homeopathy ever since.
Dr. Mullen is licensed as a Medical Doctor and as a Homeopathic Physician in
the State of Connecticut. In the State of Arizona, Dr. Mullen is licensed as a
