Adrien Albert was born on 19 November 1907 in Sydney, Australia. In the duration of World War II, he collaborated with John Earl in the preparation of the antiseptic proflavine. Additionally, Albert developed the antimalarial drug mepacrine (Atebrin) and improved the antiseptic aminacrine (Monacrine). During his medical discoveries, he developed the selective toxicity theory to explain how chemical substances can affect certain cells without harming others. This idea was applied to human and veterinary medicine, contributing a significant amount to the pharmacy field.

Ever since I was a young girl, my parents have pushed me to go down the medical path. I have always been fascinated in medicine and how science can be the thing that saves humanity. Especially since a very close family friend (practically my big sister) went to pharmacy school at the University of Illinois (one of the top pharmacy schools), I have always considered the pharmaceutical path. Her success as a practitioner in a clinic in California has inspired me to research about pharmacy school, and maybe even pursue in a pharmaceutical career.

A typical day in the life of a pharmacist begins early in the morning. Depending on where the pharmacist practices or what they do will determine the time they must clock in for work. They'll begin by reviewing over the previous days' patients, and then prepare for the ones they're expecting for that day. Pharmacists must be knowledgable on the purpose, hazards, instructions, and side effects of the medications their patients take. This information is pertinent not combining medications that could be lethal, ensuring the safety of their customers.
