Vicky Veronica Clement-Jones (née Yip; 23 December 1948 – 30 July 1987)[1] was a Hong Kong-born English physician and medical researcher.
In 1957, Yip and her four siblings moved with their mother to East Grinstead, West Sussex.
She was appointed a medical registrar at St Bartholomew's Hospital in 1976 and was awarded a bursary to research the opioid peptides involved in responses to pain.
[1] Clement-Jones was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 1982, at which point she said she "crossed the divide from doctor to patient".
The following month, on 30 July, Clement-Jones died, aged 38, exactly five years from the day she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
