Very sad news indeed. We should all honour him by stepping up our work in the areas of food composition, biodiversity exploitation, food safety and nutritional security.

Dear All, this is indeed a sad news as well as a great loss. The Nutrition Community will greatly miss him. May his soul rest in peace.

Dear all,
It is with extreme sadness that we have heard that Nevin Scrimshaw passed away Friday night, just a few days after his 95th birthday.
He was a legend in public health nutrition and in food composition. He was one of the founders of INFOODS and through INF he assisted many of us. He was inspiring to talk to, a visionary, a great mentor and always with a smile ...
