Betty Ross is the love interest of Bruce Banner and the only daughter of renowned military general Thaddeus Ross. After the Hulk's creation, Bruce and Betty had to stop dating because of his transformation into the Hulk. Betty is a cellular biologist, who is able to work with Bruce Banner on a cure for his "condition".

Betty has the totally unique quality of being able to look at Hulk and still see Bruce. Everybody else sees this horrific force of rage, and she basically still keeps looking for her friend in there and she ultimately is the only one in the film who is able to connect with him by relating to him as Bruce.

The Incredible Hulk

Five years prior to the events of the Culver University battle, Betty Ross was working at Culver University as a cellular biologist. She was Bruce Banner's girlfriend, and she was assisting him with the Gamma Pulse experiment that resulted in the unintentional creation of The Incredible Hulk. An accident in the lab caused Betty to be hurt and taken to the hospital. When she awoke, she found that Bruce had already left. Bruce later quit his job and left in search of a cure to his unwilling transformation. When Betty returned to work, General Ross had all of her work and data on the Gamma Pulse experiment taken away, but she had already made a back-up in case Bruce would ever come back.
