Colin Campbell is the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry in the Division of Nutritional Sciences at Cornell University and is best known for authoring the bestselling book The China Study with his son Thomas Campbell, M.D. He is the founder of the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and the online, internationally recognized Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate offered by the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies in partnership with eCornell.
Dr. Campbell’s expertise and scientific interests encompass relationships between diet and diseases, particularly the causation of cancer. Dr. Campbell has conducted original research both in laboratory experiments and in largescale human studies and has authored over 300 research papers. He was trained at Cornell University (M.S., Ph.D.) and MIT (research associate) in nutrition, biochemistry, and toxicology. Dr. Campbell spent 10 years on the faculty of Virginia Tech’s Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition before returning to Cornell in 1975. His legacy, the China Project, is the most comprehensive study of health and nutrition ever conducted.—bio courtesy of nutritionstudies.org Website: www.nutritionstudies.org Brought to you by the Coalition for Healthy School Food and PlantPure, our main goal for the Healthy School Food Summit (HSFS) is to educate school administrators, teachers, parents, food service workers, legislators and others on ways they can add more healthy food options in their schools to help students grow and excel while also motivating and inspiring them to also eat better at home. We've invited top experts in nutrition and program development to provide their insights through interviews with co-hosts Amie Hamlin, of the Coalition for Healthy School Food, and Ron Gandiza, of PlantPure.
