Winslow Caughey, 86, passed away on February 25, 2013. Winslow finished high school at age 15 during World War II. He went to the University of New Hampshire, where his studies were interrupted, based on precocious talent for physics, by recruitment to the Navy Electronics Program, where, starting at age 17, he worked on radar at a secret facility on Chicago's Navy Pier. After honorable discharge, he completed studies at UNH and went on to earn his Ph.D. in chemistry at Johns Hopkins University. In 1956 Winslow and his wife, Helen, co-founded the Monadnock Research Institute in Antrim, where he synthesized porphyrins as potential anti-cancer agents. In 1960, he was lured back to Johns Hopkins as an assistant professor. In 1967, he moved to the University of South Florida as a professor. In 1969 Winslow moved to ASU and became a visiting staff scientist at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. In 1973, he became Chair of the Department of Biochemistry at Colorado State University, where he taught until 1995. His wife died in 2011. He is survived by four children and 11 grandchildren. For those wishing to donate in Winslow's memory, the family suggests The Nature Conservancy or Antrim's James A Tuttle Library.
