This entertaining, information-packed presentation explores how beneficial plants become natural and pharmaceutical medicines, and what happens to native people, the environment, and the plants themselves along the way.
Chris Kilham is a medicine hunter, author and educator. The founder of Medicine Hunter Inc., Chris has conducted medicinal research in over 30 countries. He is Explorer In Residence at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, where he teaches ethnobotany through the department of Plant & Soil Sciences. Chris is the author of fourteen books, and writes articles on plant medicines for several publications. A book-signing will follow the lecture.
In addition to the lecture, Chris will offer a full-day workshop on Saturday, Nov. 7.
The Philip and Elkin Alston Lecture Series is made possible by the generous support of the Charles Loridans Foundation. Admission is free and no reservations are required.
