The body of a Byram Hills High School graduate has been found in Greece.

Scientist Suzanne Eaton's employer shared the news that Greek police found her body Monday night.

The 59-year-old was last seen on the island of Crete on Tuesday, July 2, while attending a conference.

The cause of her death is under investigation.

She was a molecular biologist with the Max Planck Institute at Dresden University in Germany. Officials from the institute said in a statement that she was a an "inspiring scientist" and a good friend who will be missed.

Eaton leaves behind a husband and two sons.
