Abstract
The regional research project Amaryllidaceae from Tolima: an unexplored source of alkaloids for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease is led by Dr. Natalie Charlotte Cortés Rendón, professor at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics. The researcher addresses the importance of the Amaryllidaceae family and its alkaloids for the treatment of neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and other potential molecular targets for this botanical family, like cancer.
