Some people say that the farthest distance in the world is not the distance between life and death, but that when I stand in front of you, you don’t know that I love you.
Recently, Zhou Xun participated in a variety show called "Adventures in Life" and met an old couple who had spent most of their lives together. Their peaceful life was broken when the husband contracted Alzheimer's disease.
The sick husband would sometimes call his son "dad" and would also call Zhou Xun "beautiful sister". Not only did he forget the past, but his mind also became like that of a child. But as long as he wakes up occasionally, what he will never forget is his love for his wife.
And the wife also takes care of her husband without any regrets. Maybe the disease has taken away the memory of love, but the two hearts are still tightly tied together.
In front of the camera, the couple is always smiling. Behind the camera, they are experiencing hardships that others cannot imagine.
For many families, Alzheimer’s disease is a devastating disaster. There are very few drugs that can effectively treat this disease. Over the past 20 years, major pharmaceutical companies in the world have invested heavily in developing drugs, but most of them ended in failure.
Just imagine, if there is a specific drug that can treat this disease, the entire life of the patients and their families will be different!
This is the importance of pharmacology - although this subject is behind the scenes and is less likely to receive attention compared to the first line of medical care, its development is closely related to each of us. Currently, pharmacological research and development work is a high-paying profession in all countries. Pharmaceutical companies, relevant government departments, hospitals, university research centers...all kinds of organizations are very welcome to pharmaceutical talents.
If you are interested in this field, if you are interested in pursuing a career that is vital to the development of human society, welcome to Griffith to study our Bachelor of Pharmacy.
