Introducion

I'm working on the pharmacy and pharmacist page together. This page should contain the following.

  • Major areas of pharmacy study (pharmacology, pharmaceutics, kinetics, etc...)
  • Types of education (Pharm D. Ph.D. etc...)
  • Opportunities in pharmacy (types of practice, research, consulting, etc.)
  • Type of pharmacies and what happens in each (this may need to be its own article. The practice of pharmacy as a science and the location of a pharmacy as a business are two separate things.)
  • History of Pharmacy
