'''Dr. Conrad Bortz''' was a brilliant geneticist who lived near [[Syracuse, New York]] and worked for [[Genetech]].

:"''Do you realize what you've done? You just pissed off Orion.''"
He was incredibly wealthy and lived in a large mansion with extremely high security. [[Wally West]] commented that it made "Fort Knox look like a picnic shelter", with guard dogs, photoelectric traps, bulletproof mylar windows, a gas chamber, and a staff of security guards.

One of Bortz's employees at Genetech was [[Jerry McGee]], a brilliant but mentally disturbed scientist who was working on developing super athletes. McGee injected himself with the steroids and electrode implants he had developed. He went after Bortz, claiming that Bortz had tried to steal his work. McGee collapsed from kidney failure during a battle with the Flash at Bortz's mansion.

==Summary==
It was Bortz who recommended that [[Dr. Orloff]] of the Siberian [[Puleski Institute]] be brought to the U.S. to treat McGee.
