        Histórico

        In 1896 the Wellcome Research Laboratories (WRL) were established in a building near the headquarters of Burroughs Wellcome, under Frederick Belding Power and H A D Jowett. Henry Solomon Wellcome (HSW) declared that these laboratories were to be quite distinct from the business departments.

        In 1899 the WRL moved to 6 King Street, Snow Hill and became known as the Wellcome Chemical Research Laboratories (WCRL).

        Work involved the isolation and production of new chemical substances and collaboration with the Wellcome Physiological Research Laboratories (WPRL) in their pharmacological testing.

        Despite the claim that the research laboratories were clearly independent from the firm, they did in fact serve HSW's commercial purposes and contributed to his business success.

        In 1905 the Experimental Department was set up to enable the WCRL to be devoted to purely academic work and the Chemical Department to concentrate on manufacturing work.

        In 1913 the Wellcome Bureau of Scientific Research (WBSR) was established to unify all the scientific research work. Andrew Balfour was the Director.

        In 1924 the Wellcome Foundation Limited (WFL) was established which formally drew together for the first time, the company, the research laboratories and the museums.

        In 1931 the Wellcome Research Institution (WRI) was established which housed the WCRL and WBSR. The WPRL remained at Beckenham.
