| Abstract: | (CIT): National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) is pleased to sponsor Distinguished Lectures in the Science of Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Each year, NCCAM invites two leading figures in science and medicine to speak about their unique perspectives on the field of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). The lectures shed light on the evolution of CAM practice and research and the current use of CAM by the public. This lecture will present recent findings regarding activation of PXR by St. John's wort and other herbs and discuss how this knowledge can be applied to predict and prevent harmful interactions between herbs and prescription drugs.
