Every year at All-Alumni Reunion, we honor alumni who have been humanitarians, innovators and leaders in their field. Each of the three Alumni Association Awards recognizes the outstanding impact Friedman School alumni have on the field of nutrition science and policy.
Help us recognize our remarkable Friedman School graduates by nominating someone you know today!
