Even if the player character becomes director of the Institute and subsequently gives Virgil the serum, there is no option via dialogue to have the now-human Virgil return to the Institute.

What happens if you don't give Virgil the serum?
How Virgil will react when you see him depends what you've done with The Institute. If you destroyed the Institute without giving Virgil the serum that would have cured him (see The Glowing Sea), he will want to kill you, making killing him an easy decision. If you did cure him, you can still kill him or let him go.

The Institute:They are the true main antagonist of Fallout 4 unless you side with them. They bring war to every other faction. The only thing I can say to justify them is that they have all this high tech and medicine that can actually help the Commonwealth.

Who was strong before he became a super mutant?
The most likely theory is that Strong was a normal wastelander captured by the Institute to use as a test subject, then disposed of afterwards. Strong might have a backstory similar to Virgil, in that he was a scientist working with FEV who was exposed.

If, like me, you want to keep your promise to Virgil after he's helped you infiltrate the Institute, then you may have been confused about where to find the Serum which he hopes will transform him. Do this as soon as possible after finding the Institute. If you wait too long, you will fail the quest after getting back to Virgil with the Serum. Definitely bring a few healing items and be prepared for a fight. Even if you've been there before, you should be able to fast travel there unless you've been hostile to the residents. Look for the Bioscience lab. It is one of the few that has the words marked under the symbol, so it's not the only green one. From there, you want to find the FEV lab - it's in the back, protected by a novice-level lock, meaning anyone can pick their way inside. This area is heavily protected by turrets, and there is even a nasty Assaultron. I made short work of it, but had to tread carefully not knowing what the real threats were. After the Assaultron, nothing major of note came up - just 5 or 6 Turrets, and lots of materials. The place looks like it's been completely abandoned. Go through the hallways, you literally cannot miss the serum machine pictured below, because there are not many branches off this corridor. To minimize spoilers, I won't show a picture of the lab here, so you can see it for the first time yourself. This may color your view of the Institute, and help you pick a side. Of course, you may be fine with the way they're handling things! You can use a terminal toward the end to get out of this area and back into the main Institute building. No one will be aware of what you did while inside, and you can take the serum back to Virgil at his Rocky Cave in the Glowing Sea. Evil Route - you can con Virgil into killing himself, with 3 speech checks - he doesn't have the guts for it, but if you do it for him after convincing him, you can take his Laser Rifle, which does +50% damage to Supermutants.Head to the Institute
