Albert was born into a family of intellectually gifted parents. He and hundreds more of the same children were selected for the Wesker program, in which they were raised by the Umbrella Corporation, receiving the surname Wesker.

For the press, the Arklay laboratories were searching for an Ebola vaccine, but in fact, Umbrella Corporation was interested in the death rate from the virus, the data on which it intended to use in the development of the T-virus, which was studied there. Birkin and Wesker have been researching the T-virus for 12 years, in three stages. In 1987, when the research reached the third stage (proto-Tyrant creation), Oswell Spencer ordered both of them to kill his mentor, Marcus, and take all his research. Soon Birkin discovered a new type of virus, the G-virus, found during the research of Lisa Trevor, who for a long time was an experimental subject of the corporation and directly Wesker and Birkin, while they worked in the Arklay laboratories. When Spencer approved Birkin's pro...
