Renowned microbiologist Patricia Taylor died 9th September, aged 95. Outside of academia, she's better known for her role in the "Canadian Caper", as wife of the Canadian Ambassador to Iran, Ken Taylor, who concealed 6 US diplomats and helped smuggle them to safety (see also ARGO). She was also an accomplished ballet dancer (principal ballet dancer Queensland Ballet Theatre) and violinist (California Symphony orchestra).
