Scrimshaw was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. During the course of his long career he developed nutritional supplements for alleviating protein, iodine, and iron deficiencies in the developing world. His pioneering and extensive publications in the area of human nutrition and food science include over 20 books and monographs and hundreds of scholarly articles. Scrimshaw also founded the Department of Nutrition and Food Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Institute of Nutrition of Central America and Panama, and the Nevin Scrimshaw International Nutrition Foundation.[1] He was awarded the Bolton L. Corson Medal in 1976 and the World Food Prize in 1991.[2] Scrimshaw spent the last years of his life on a farm in Thornton, New Hampshire, where he died at 95.[3]
