Dr. Alber – Kareem Zade

I really enjoyed Dr. Alber’s presentation on Louis Pasteur. She gave us a lot of information on his work, and described his laboratories very well with the help of pictures. I also liked how Dr. Alber even described his rival, Robert Koch, and what he has done for science as well. I liked how Dr. Alber went into further detail than what was shown in the movie, which helped give us a deeper understanding of what Pasteur did and how he lived.  One thing that I found very interesting was how Pasteur was basically the worlds first germophobe, since he used separate doors in his bathroom to get into bed. I guess you couldn’t blame him though, since he firmly believed that germs were the cause of all disease, and since he did end up to live a fairly long time for his time period.
