Tematika

Pharmacobotany covers all pharmaceutical aspects of botany. Students will be introduced to the basics of plant morphology and histology, relevant in case of medicinal plants. Plant systematics discusses the classification and geographical origin of plant species, the possibilities of cultivation and nature conservation. A special emphasis is laid on chemotaxonomic aspects, since the medicinal effect of a plant is often related to its taxonomic classification and chemical characteristics. The thorough knowledge of both general and specific pharmacobotany is a prerequisite of studying pharmacognosy.
