Larry Neil Vanderhoef (March 20, 1941 – October 15, 2015) was an American biochemist, and academic. He was the 5th chancellor of University of California, Davis.

Biography

Vanderhoef was born in Perham, Minnesota to Wilmar James Vanderhoef and Ida Lucille Wothe. He received his B.A. and M.S. in biology from the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, and a Ph.D. in plant biochemistry from Purdue University.[1]

Vanderhoef's research interests included the general area of plant growth and development, and in the evolution of the land-grant universities. He taught classes at levels from freshman to advanced graduate study.

The Regents of the University of California named Vanderhoef the fifth chancellor of UC Davis in 1994. He served on various national commissions addressing graduate and international education, the role of a modern land-grant university, and accrediting issues.

On June 2, 2008 Vanderhoef announced his intention to resign as chancellor on 30 June 2009, ending his tenure of more than fifteen years.[2] In Summer 2009, former University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Provost Linda P.B. Katehi succeeded Vanderhoef as Chancellor of UC Davis.

Vanderhoef died on October 15, 2015 from complications due to a series of ischemic strokes, the first of which occurred in November 2012.[3]
