    Arcadia friends and Southwest Florida neighbors, I Arcadia friends and Southwest Florida neighbors, I’m spending today back in my hometown for a special book signing at Dragon’s Den Books on Historic Main Street! 🌿📚

I’m here now through 3 PM today (Saturday, May 23) with hardcover and paperback copies of The Plant Hunter available.

Stop by to say hello, support local business, grab a coffee, and chat with me about plants, storytelling, and the healing power of nature. I’d love to see you! @dragonsdenbooks @arcadiamainstreet
    We’re beyond proud!! 🎓❤️ Bella graduated high scho We’re beyond proud!! 🎓❤️ Bella graduated high school with honors, and somehow the years have flown by in the blink of an eye. This fall she begins an exciting new chapter in the Netherlands, where she’ll study Applied Mathematics. Big dreams, big adventures, and a whole world waiting for you, Bella!
    Hey friends and fans in Southwest Florida! Join me Hey friends and fans in Southwest Florida! Join me tomorrow, Saturday May 23, in the charming antique district along Arcadia’s historic Main Street! Located in DeSoto County, Florida, this special corner of the Florida heartland is just about an hour from Sarasota or Fort Myers and roughly two hours from Tampa or Orlando.

This event feels especially meaningful to me because Arcadia is my hometown. So much of who I am today was shaped by growing up here. Returning to meet readers, reconnect with familiar faces, and share this chapter of my journey in the place where my own story began feels truly special.

📍 Dragon’s Den Bookshop
101 W Oak St, Arcadia, FL 34266

I’ll be there from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. meeting readers, signing books, chatting about the Foodie Pharmacology podcast, sharing updates on my upcoming field research season, and talking about current writing projects.

Come by and say hello! Bring your copy of The Plant Hunter for a signing, or pick one up at the shop while you’re there.

And make a day of it: grab a coffee at the cute café next door, stroll along Arcadia’s historic Main Street, and explore the many antique shops along the way. You never know what treasures you might uncover!

Free street and public lot parking is available nearby. I’d love to see friends old and new there 💚

Yours in health, Dr. Quave

    This is my last year of service after two terms on This is my last year of service after two terms on the Editorial Board of the Royal Society of Chemistry journal, Natural Product Reports. It has been such an honor and privilege to serve the scientific community in this role. I've so enjoyed working with talented natural products chemists from around the world that serve on the board together!

    Read about our latest research on the healing powe Read about our latest research on the healing power of nature! Our new scientific paper, published this week in ACS Infectious Diseases, investigates the activity of a clerodane diterpene compound from the American Beautyberry plant against acne. I've broken down the science for the public on Nature's Pharmacy in Substack.
    A lot has been happening in the lab lately and I’m A lot has been happening in the lab lately and I’m really excited about where things are headed!

We’ve hit some major milestones, from projects tackling drug resistant pathogens to documenting medicinal plant knowledge and advancing our discovery work.

This kind of work takes a team, and I feel incredibly lucky to be working with a group that’s pushing things forward every day, from fieldwork to microbiology to chemistry.

We’re also sharpening our discovery pipeline, moving faster from extract to identifying the compounds that actually drive biological activity. That’s where things start to get really interesting!

    Spring is here, and seasonal pollen along with it! Spring is here, and seasonal pollen along with it!

In this week’s episode of Foodie Pharmacology, I speak with Gary Falcetano, PA-C, AE-C, about pollen food allergy syndrome and why certain fresh foods can trigger itching or irritation during allergy season.

Also known as oral allergy syndrome, this condition is a fascinating example of cross-reactivity, in which the immune system confuses pollen proteins with similar proteins in plant foods.

We discuss: 
• Why symptoms are often limited to the mouth and throat 
• Why cooking foods like apples can make them tolerable 
• How common this condition is and why it is often overlooked 
• The role of IgE and advances in diagnostic testing 
• Practical strategies to reduce symptoms during peak pollen season

If you or your patients notice reactions to fresh fruits or vegetables in the spring, this episode offers helpful context and tools.
