A core element of this position will be your leadership as the module coordinator for Herbal Therapeutics and Clinical Practice Advanced. In Herbal Therapeutics, you will delve into Materia Medica and Phytochemistry, exploring plant remedies through a traditional therapeutic lens, including vital aspects such as botanical and pharmacological properties and their therapeutic applications. You'll also cover important considerations like treatment indications, contraindications, and posology, tailoring dosage recommendations for elderly patients and children. This role emphasises applying modern scientific research alongside clinical experience to enhance the understanding of medicinal plants, including topics such as herb combinations and the synergy of remedies. Your knowledge and experience in both phytochemistry and traditional western herbalism will be crucial.
