Jonathan Stevens
Jonathan Stevens (6 January 1977 - 27 December 2013), known as "Dr. Jonny", studied Human Genetics and Biology at Oxford, and worked in medical research. He was diagnosed with Parkinson's at the age of 33.[1] He was a British medical researcher and campaigner for people with Parkinson's disease.[2][3] He collapsed and died at Christmas 2013. A post mortem found that he had an undiagnosed congenital heart defect.[1] A photography competition now runs in his memory as he himself had a keen interest in photography,[4] which he continued to explore even after his Parkinson's diagnosis.[5][6][7][8]
