Biographical note
The Sanger Institute is a genome sequencing centre established by the Wellcome Trust and Medical Research Council (MRC) in 1992. It was originally called the Sanger Centre, named after double Nobel Prize winning biochemist Frederick Sanger. The Centre was initially based at the MRC's Laboratory of Molecular Biology whilst suitable accommodation was found. A site at Hinxton, a few miles outside Cambridge, was initially leased and then purchased and staff moved on site in 1993. In 2001 the Centre changed its name to the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.
