Mahi-Mary Papanicolaou

 

A dainty, but dynamic woman was the “good angel”, that stood by Georges Papanicolaou for more than half a century . We speak about his spouse Mahi-Mary Papanicolaou -Maurogenous, descendant of the heroine of the GreekRevolution, Manto Mayrogenous. Mahi-Mary remained the eternal partner and assistant of the famous Greek doctor. She accepted not to start a family with him, so that both be dedicated to Science and she served this purpose consequently up to the end of her own life.
