The role of plants as sources of medicines for humanity had been well recognized. Although the number of animal species in the world far outnumber that of plants, not much research had been done on the search for potentially important medicines from animals. The folkloric usage of natural products sometimes serves as starting point for research into these potential medicines. There had been limited work that documents the traditional uses of animal parts across the world and in Ghana. I have started a PhD in Ghana to consider “Conservation implications of animal parts traded as medicines in Ghana” Can I get contacts of groups or individuals are interested in animal medicines or conservation of animals who can provide some support for this project? I intend collecting samples of these animal parts being sold for medicinal purpose and would like to use DNA techniques to authenticate them. Can I get contacts of Professors, individuals or laboratories anywhere in the world who would like to support the work or make their laboratories available for the DNA analysis? Need the support of fellow researchers on this platform.
