Reunions

Stanford Reunion Homecoming is just around the corner! Reconnect with the many alumni, faculty, students, and staff who make up the incredible HumBio community. We are so excited to welcome alumni back to campus to reconnect and reminisce with our Classes without Quizzes (CWOQ) and Open House events.

 

Food Sense: A Conversation with Dr. Christopher Gardner, Dr. Anna Grummon, & Dr. Rachele Pojednic (CWOQ in collaboration with SAA)

  • Date: Friday, October 16
  • Time: 3:15 - 4:15 PM
  • Location: To be announced
  • Join us for a dynamic CWOQ conversation with renowned nutrition scientist Dr. Christopher Gardner on his new book, Food Sense: What to Eat and Why. Drawing on decades of research, Gardner cuts through nutrition noise—highlighting the Big Four and Solid Six—and offers flexible, enjoyable ways to eat more plants and fewer processed foods. He’ll be joined by Dr. Anna Grummon ’11, a behavioral scientist and Director of the Stanford Food Policy program, and Dr. Rachele Pojednic, Adjunct Lecturer in Human Biology and Chief Science Officer at Restore. Together, these three leaders bring science, policy, and behavior-change perspectives to everyday food choices. Expect myth-busting, evidence-based insights—and practical tips you can use immediately.
  • Note: This event is open to all alumni attending Reunion Homecoming. Seating for this event is on a first-come, first-seated basis. RSVP'ing is for planning purposes only and does not guarantee you a seat.
