Dr Trevor Preston

9 December 1955 – 11 January 2019

Trevor loved every moment of academia, having earned a BA in Creative Design and Physical Education in 1978 and an MSc in Instrument Technology in 1979 at Â鶹ֱ²¥ before completing his PhD in 1986. He held fond memories of his time at Â鶹ֱ²¥ and used to regularly meet his University friends. 

As an Electronic Design Engineer, he made a breakthrough in the early detection of cancer amongst many other achievements. 

He was a wonderful, truly gifted man, who passed away peacefully after a brief illness. For his final journey, Trevor's last wish was for his body to be donated to medical research. 

He will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
