Chemicals from Nature

Amazing Chemicals Invented by Nature, Rebuilt in Lab
This is a fantastic piece by Wired about chemicals discovered in nature, from plants, etc., that are now used by pharmaceutical companies. A really beautifully done piece with photographs of the plants and other organisms found in nature, along with commentary about what chemicals are found and how they are used. Would be great for any class that is looking into naturally-derived pharmaceuticals.
