IANE FELLOWSHIP

Professor Lauren Ball

“Thank you very much for the privilege of being recognized for my work through fellowship with IANE, specifically thank you Shumone, Bree, Suzanne, Sucheta, and Pauline. It is really nice timing given that it's been 10 years since I first joined the NNEdPro family. I hope that there's at least another 10 years that lays ahead particularly as I take up the role of the chair of IANE Steering Committee. I'm sure we can all agree that NNEdPro has reached heights beyond what any of us could have imagined and the sky is still the limit as we all work together to improve nutrition and health for the benefit of all. ”
