Delete it, delete it, delete it!” cried Jon from 7000 miles away at 2 am, 2 hours past the print deadline for our Sainsbury Wellcome Centre bid. For someone who claimed to know little about ‘attention’, his ‘attention to detail’ was incredible. Jon selflessly gave up 6 months of his sabbatical to lead the SWC bid whilst also taking the time to ‘baptise’ me in the UCL way in the process. I always used to think how ironic it was that someone named ‘Driver’ could be so ‘driven’, even in an area far outside of his own. I learnt so much from Jon and will be forever grateful for the time that I had with him. Deepest sympathies to Nilli and family, Graham, xxx
