Dr. Tyler accepted the appointment as dean of the School of Pharmacy and Pharmacal Sciences at Purdue University in 1966 and was closely associated with the Purdue University for the rest of his career.〔http://www.pharmacy.purdue.edu/tyler/dr_tyler.php〕 His research interests included medicinal and toxic constituents of higher fungi, phytochemical analysis, alkaloid biosynthesis, drug plant cultivation, and herbal medicine. According to his opinion "true herbalism encompasses scientific testing, honest reporting of the results, and safe use of effective herbs by informed practitioners and the public". He was opposed to what he called "paraherbalism" or "herbalism based on pseudoscience".〔http://www.quackwatch.com/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/paraherbalism.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Varro Eugene Tyler」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
