Histórico
In 1897 C J S Thompson (CJST) began to collect books and manuscripts for Henry Solomon Wellcome's library.
In 1898 CJST became an employee of Burrough Wellcome and Co.
In 1903-1904 an Historical Medical Exhibition was planned.
In 1911 the Historical Medical Museum was established at 54a Wigmore Street, which in 1914 became the Wellcome Historical Medical Museum (WHMM).
In 1931 the Wellcome Research Institution opened in 183 Euston Road and in 1932 the WHMM moved into the new building.
In 1960 the ownership of the historical collections transferred from the Company to the Trustees; although administration was still carried on by the Company.
In 1966 the Trust established a sub-department of the History of Medicine in the Department of Anatomy, at University College London (UCL).
In 1968 the WHMM and Library were renamed the Wellcome Institute of the History of Medicine.
