CONGRATULATIONS to an outstanding group of future scientists, leaders, entrepreneurs, academics and regulators of the food enterprise. Here are the 2001 IFT Scholars from Ohio State University. We are pleased that IFT continues to recognize the nation's top scholars with significant awards. Our thanks to all faculty members who helped nominate and all students who took the time to submit their excellent credentials to the national jury.
