Limberg awarded Millsap Distinguished Professorship
Three faculty members from across the University of Missouri were recently awarded the Millsap Distinguished Professorship, established by a Mizzou alumnus, teacher and philanthropist. The professorship is awarded for a five-year term to recognize outstanding contributions by faculty.
One of the recipients is Jacqueline Limberg, associate professor, Division of Food, Nutrition & Exercise Sciences. Limberg’s research looks at mechanisms that contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease and interventions that can reverse and/or prevent cardiovascular disease risk.
