Zelna Booth

I qualified with a Bachelor of Pharmacy (with distinction) in 2011, undertaking immediate postgraduate studies and graduating with a Master of Pharmacy (with distinction) degree in 2014 at the University of the Witwatersrand. After practicing as a qualified pharmacist, I returned to academia as a full-time lecturer on the undergraduate Bachelor of Pharmacy degree, in the Division of Pharmacy Practice. I am currently undertaking a PhD in the field of natural products, with focus on traditional medicinal plants used in the treatment of infectious diseases in South Africa and the implications of combination use of these traditional remedies with conventional antimicrobials.
