They range from plant screening, isolation and structure eluci- dation of new principles, to the therapeutical opti- mization of a natural product. The lectures given at this congress show clearly the necessity, in addition to national phytochemical so- cieties, for a central international organisation, in which all active medicinal plant researchers in the world are included. Their aim should be to provide the impulse for more optimal, rational research, aimed at the solution of specific projects.
