Professor Stephen Hawking is a famous scientist in the field of Theoretical Physics, most notable for his work in helping to understand black holes. He has difficulty communicating due to a disease known as ALS which results in nerve degradation. He communicates via a binary sensor that detects when he twitches his cheek and sends that signal to his computer, allowing him to select words and phrases using text-to-speech software. Professor Hawking receives a new custom computer donated by Intel Corporation every couple of year.

Stephen Hawking is brilliant man probably the smartest in the world. He has done amazing things such as he has a Ph.D. in physics. and Dr. Hawking has researched black holes. His most important discovery so far is that black holes emit X-rays and gamma-rays that can be detected by special scientific instruments.

Dr. Hawking is the author of A Brief History of Time and Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays. NOT only that but he was diagnosed with Lou Gehrigs disease at the age of 21. That disease slowly weakens all the muscles in the body and eventually kills you.He is the longest living Survivor of the disease(MORE THAN 40 YEARS) It is very rare for it to be found on such a young man. So because of all he has done in improving our world while suffering from a horrible disease he has shown brilliance in the arms of total failure when he could have given up. Our world would not be the same without Stephen Hawking.

Stephen Hawking is a famous British theoretical physicist, known for his work regarding black holes and his ALS, which confines him to a wheelchair and forces him to use a computerized voice synthesizer. I must add.. the question should be corrected to 'Who is Steven Hawking?'.. The word was implies that he is dead.
he is still studying the black holes
