At the Phytochemical Society of North America annual meeting, at York University in Toronto. There's lots of biochemistry! And it's small, so there are no concurrent sessions, so you don't have the tyranny of choice. Ryo Yokoyama from U. Missouri tells us how plants are the best chemists on earth 🌎!
