aircraft . His father is Frank Hawking, who

DISABILITY
Already in the early 1960s, signs of amyotrophic

he had pneumonia. After a series of operations,
he underwent a tracheostomy, and Hawking lost
his ability to speak. Mechanical friends modified
Stephen's wheelchair by installing an on-board
computer with a speech synthesizer, which
Hawking managed first with the help of his right
index finger, and subsequently with a mimic
cheek muscle, opposite to which he secured the
sensor..
Hawking’s voice had an American accent and
at the time of his death had not been created
for other similar devices for many years.

mathematics, he never received any
mathematical education since middle school.
In his first year of teaching at Oxford Hawking
had read the textbook ahead of their own
students for two weeks.
