Take a Campus “Plant Power” Tour

TAGS:


Prof. Asaph Aharoni is passionate about the power of plants and how their unique chemistry can be used to nourish and heal the world. In this video, he takes us on a special tour around campus to visit the various places he studies plants, from the chemistry lab to the greenhouse. Join him to see how licorice might be used as a low-calorie sweetener, the medicinal potential for rare cannabinoids, and the natural benefit of an eggplant’s bitter flavor.
