The Wellcome Trust

The Wellcome Trust is 75 this year

January 9, 2011 / simondenegri / Leave a comment

The Wellcome Trust this year celebrates its 75th birthday since being founded by Sir Henry Wellcome in 1936.  The Observer's Robin McKie profiles the Trust in today's Observer.  Wellcome was also a founding member of AMRC way back in 1972 I might add.
