Dr. Alber’s presentation on Louis Pasteur was great. I enjoyed how she talked about the movie that we watched in class. I have studied some microbiology and have learned a little about Pastuer as well as his accomplishments. He was known for studying microorganisms and how they lived. He found out that microorganisms were all around us and the diseases they cause can be traced back to microbes and can often be stopped. It was interesting to look at a timeline of Pasteur’s life and see how his early work was applied by Lister to introduce sterilization in surgery. Pasteur contributed greatly to advancing society to where it is today. In his time he could never have believed that today we would have antibiotic resistant bacteria and other things of the sort to deal with. Dr. Alber was very intriguing and informational.
