"Hugh Taylor"Bio:
DOI: 10.1098/rsbm.1975.0017
Hugh Stott Taylor earned his Ph.D. in 1914 from the Univ. of Liverpool (UK). His situation is peculiar in that he was mentored by both Frederick Donnan and Henry Bassett, Jr. The records in the archives of Univ. of Liverpool have him petitioning the registrar for his Ph.D. degree in 1914 after two years on the continent -- one year in Sweden with Arrhenius and one year in Germany with Bodenstein. In his petition, he presented a portfolio of published papers in lieu of a dissertation. This portfolio included four papers published with Bassett. Taylor travelled on an 1851 Exhibition Scholarship -- a highly prestigious award. At that time both Bassett and Donnan had left Liverpool for other universities. Bassett became a professor at the University of Reading in 1912. Donnan went to University College London in 1913. Although Taylor had a closer professional and personal relationship with Donnan than with Bassett, he did not publish with him.
Hugh S. Taylor was the brother of H. Austin Taylor
