Pharmacologists study the effects of drugs and chemicals on living organisms, especially humans and animals. Their work is essential in the development of new medicines and the improvement of existing treatments. They may work in laboratories, universities, pharmaceutical companies, or hospitals. The role involves designing and running experiments, analysing data, and ensuring new drugs are safe and effective for use. Pharmacologists also contribute to drug safety regulations and may advise on legal and ethical issues related to medicine use. This career requires a strong background in biology and chemistry, attention to detail, and excellent analytical skills.
