The E. V. McCollum International Lectureship in Nutrition
provides a means to encourage sound advancements in nutritional
science and their application for improving the health and
well-being of people worldwide and to commemorate the life and
contributions of E. V. McCollum. An outstanding nutritionist is
invited to deliver two lectures on a topic consistent with the
purpose of the lectureship in locations that will assure a large
and broad audience. The lecturer serves a two-year term.
Generally, one lecture is given in the first year at ASN's
Scientific Sessions & Annual Meeting at Experimental Biology
and one lecture is given in the second year at an international
venue.
The recipient receives a one-time honorarium of $1,500 and travel
reimbursement for one lecture (maximum reimbursement: $5,000).
The lectureship is supported by the E. V. McCollum International
Lectureship Endowment Fund.
