It is very sad news for all of us. My sincere condolences to his family and the whole nutrition family in the world.
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 ...
