Event – Plants to Drugs: Discover How Nature Powers Research at URI [Register here]
3/17/2021: 12:30 – 1:00 PM
Join us for a virtual tour of the Heber W. Youngken Jr. Medicinal Garden live from the College of Pharmacy greenhouse and a pharmacognosy research laboratory. Learn about plants that keep us healthy, from sources of molecules developed into pharmaceuticals to the origins of the ingredients in your herbal tea. Watch a demonstration of how whole plant extractions are done, and see the instruments that are used to identify and describe the individual constituents. There will be time for Q & A about the collection, botanical research at URI, and experience from students living and learning at URI.
