Professor Conrad Fischer was a professor of Genetics during the early 21st century. He was investigating what was happening at the New Eden research institute, when he vanished. He was dating Natalie Blake at the time of his disappearance. He later made contact with Torchwood via a web broadcast saying that he had a laptop with all of New Eden's information on it. However, moments later during the webcast, the supposedly dead Natalie Blake stormed in, shot Fischer in the head and stole the laptop. (VG: Torchwood Mission Game)
