Pharmaceutical firms in 1880s in Germany also established relationships with academic labs and due to the result of “exchange of research methods and findings drove a focus dyes, immune antibodies and other physiologically active agents that would react with disease-causing organisms.”

I am mainly interested in scientist or technician roles within the healthcare industry. Some examples of technical skills include HPLC, dissolution, physical testing, analysis testing, mass spectrometry, conducting research and research data. In addition, some examples of transferrable skills include attention to detail, oral and written scientific communication, teamwork, and time management. Furthermore, possible strategies to attaining these skills is to first do what I can in my current work term. I can and already learned some technical skills and all the transferrable skills to some extent, so to expand, I will join research groups to obtain mass spectrometry and conducting research with the assistance of professors. I will simultaneously learn teamwork and oral and written scientific communication through conducting research as well. I believe that what I have planned above will help me be successful at my future position in the healthcare
