83. Professor Jane Plant

Jane Plant CBE passed away on 4th March. She joined the Company in 1999 and in the early days played an active part. Jane was one of the world's leading geochemists and was chief scientist at the British Geological Survey from 2000 to 2005, as well as Professor of Geochemistry at Imperial College. She is most often remembered for the encouragement she gave to cancer sufferers – recommending a dairy-free diet, based on her husband's observations of the much reduced impact of cancer in China. She will be greatly missed.
