		Morgan was born in 1866 in Lexington, Kentucky, nephew of the flamboyant General John Hunt Morgan who was nicknamed "The Thunderbolt of the Confederacy" for his swashbuckling exploits during the Civil War.
		Morgan often jokingly said that he did three kinds of experiments: those that were foolish, those that were damn foolish, and those that were worse than that.
		As testament to his humility, Morgan reversed his position on Mendelian principles, and in 1915 with his students A. Sturtevant, H. Muller, and C. Bridges, produced the fundamental genetics textbook The Mechanism of Mendelian Heredity, reconciling all of genetics to the physical array of genes on chromosomes and to the behavior of chromosomes.

	Thomas Hunt Morgan at Columbia University
		Morgan was trained as a developmental biologist, receiving his Ph.D. in 1890 from the Johns Hopkins University for work on the development of sea spiders, a specialized group of invertebrate animals, and in 1891 he accepted a teaching post at Bryn Mawr College.
		Wilson convinced Morgan that the key to understanding development—how one cell, the egg, gives rise to the animal—is to understand heredity, since it provides the means by which the egg and the sperm carry the properties of individuals from one generation to another.
		Morgan deduced that a male must inherit the X chromosome from his mother and Y from his father, and he immediately spotted a correlation between these sex-linked chromosomes and the segregation of the factors determining eye color.

		At the beginning of his career, however, Morgan spent considerable time and effort on the study of embryogenesis and regeneration, and published several important articles and books on these subjects.
		However, Morgan eventually abandoned the study of regeneration since, in his own words, he felt that "we will never understand the phenomena of development and regeneration" (Berrill, N. "The pleasure and practice of biology" Can.

		The importance of Morgan's earlier work with Drosophila was that it demonstrated that the associations known as coupling and repulsion, discovered by English workers in 1909 and 1910 using the Sweet Pea, are in reality the obverse and reverse of the same phenomenon, which was later called linkage.
		Morgan's first papers dealt with the demonstration of sex linkage of the gene for white eyes in the fly, the male fly being heterogametic.
		Morgan was made a Foreign Member of the Royal Society of London in 1919, where he delivered the Croonian Lecture in 1922.
