BrisScience (August 19) - Growing medicine

Have you ever thought about how or where your medicines are made? Depending on the type of pharmaceutical, it could be made in a laboratory, or perhaps sourced directly from nature. Plants have been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years, and many modern medicines are derived from plant-based compounds, but modern pharmaceutical production tends to be associated with a laboratory setting. Using plants instead of labs to make modern medicines could help reduce the cost and environmental impact of their production, and allow medicines to be more accessible across the globe. Join us this month to hear how scientists are combining the traditional with the modern by creating plants that can make new pharmaceuticals.
