About our Project and Team
Welcome to our website!
This was created by Katherine Blumanthal, Katharine Edel, and Isabelle Sillo in May of 2020. We are students at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) who conducted an Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP) on the awareness and perceptions of herbal medicine in New England. The following information was collected through interviewing and surveying New England residents and herbal practitioners.
This information is based solely on collected responses. It can be used at your own discretion, however we are not qualified to give any medical advice.
