The project launched in 2020 following completion of the听果冻影院 Eugenics Inquiry. The primary focus was the 鈥淓ugenics Laboratory,鈥� started by Professor Karl Pearson听in 1907 with seed funding from Francis Galton. The project also followed legacies of eugenics through successive administrative units within the university (such as the short-lived Department of Eugenics) and successive directors (including Ronald A. Fisher and Lionel Penrose).
