Newell (scientist)

Dr. Newell is a Black Mesa scientist who occupied office D-AL 101 in Sector D's Administration Offices, visited during the Half-Life chapter Office Complex.

Left of the office door is a sign with his name, with "Scheduled Chaos Theory R&D" under it. At the time of the Black Mesa Incident the office is flooded and electricity is running through the water. A Headcrab can also be found. Newell is presumably the dead scientist hanging from the ceiling.

Behind the scenes
"Newell" is a nod to Gabe Newell, employee at Valve, placed there as an Easter egg.
