Description
Michael Morgan and Susan Wallace, telephone interview by Kathryn Maxson and Robert
Cook-Deegan, conducted from Durham, NC, 4 April 2012. Michael Morgan joined the Wellcome
Trust in 1983 as a Program Manager for Molecular and Cell Biology. By 1996, he was
the Director of Research Partnerships and Ventures at the Trust. A biologist by training
and a strong proponent of rapid data release, Morgan planned the Bermuda meetings
and was a chief figure both in the Wellcome Trust’s adoption of the Principles as
policies, and the translation of the Principles into government policies outside the
U.K. At the time of the 1996 Bermuda meeting, Susan Wallace was Administrator of the
Americas office of the Human Genome Organization (HUGO) in Bethesda, one of three
HUGO offices that then existed. (The other two were in London, HUGO Europe, and in
Japan, HUGO Asia.) In this capacity, Wallace attended the first two HUGO meetings.
