We had a great time hosting the LPI’s Diet and Optimum Health Conference! It was amazing to have such esteemed speakers and engaged guests gathered together for two days at OSU's CH2M HILL Alumni Center.

From innovations in bench and data science to the challenges of communication and implementation, the presentations and discussions further inspired our shared desire to help people live longer, healthier lives.

OSU’s Patricia Valian Reser Center for the Creative Arts (PRAx) provided the perfect setting last night for celebrating the conference and the new and deepened connections among our guests. Thank you to everyone who helped make DOH 2025 a success!

Diet & Optimum Health 2025 is underway! LPI Director Emily Ho set the stage for the keynote panel's exploration of the future of dietary supplements, healthspan, and optimal health.

Dr. Julie Andersen, Dr. Jose Ordovas, and Dr. Stefan Pasiakos shared their expertise to engage our audience in what it currently means to try to help the population “live better longer” and improve healthspan.

Thank you to all of today’s speakers for the fascinating presentations and discussion about the complexities and frontiers of precision nutrition and healthspan research. We look forward to day two of the conference tomorrow!

Congratulations to this year’s LPI Summer Research Scholars! Thanks to generous donors, these five awardees are receiving financial support towards their work with LPI faculty mentors this summer.

The projects delve into a range of promising avenues for healthy aging and disease prevention, such as:

🔎 novel combination treatments for breast cancers
🔎 the role of a novel vitamin D derivative and bioactive natural product(s) in mitigating skin damage from ultraviolet radiation
🔎 investigations into glial cell physiology to better understand brain aging and neurodegenerative diseases
🔎 determining the proteome landscape of therapy-induced senescence in breast cancer subtypes to support the development of senotherapeutics

We look forward to sharing their progress later this summer!

Congratulations to Jan Frederik Stevens, the LPI’s new Ava Helen Pauling Chair!

Dr. Stevens was among several OSU faculty members recognized by the Oregon State University Foundation at its annual Faculty Excellence Dinner on May 7.

He is currently LPI’s Associate Director of Research and a professor in the Oregon State University College of Pharmacy. He joined the Institute in 2002.

Dr. Stevens’ research focuses on the chemistry, biology, and pharmacology of natural products from plants. He is known for leading pioneering research on xanthohumol, a natural product from the female flowers of the hops plant.

The Stevens lab has discovered that xanthohumol exerts anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, and anti-hyperglycemic effects in animal models of metabolic syndrome. Dr. Stevens brought xanthohumol to clinical trials for testing its safety and efficacy in patients suffering from Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

The Ava Helen Pauling Chair position was named in honor of Dr. Linus Pauling’s wife because of her great importance to him, his career, and their work opposing nuclear testing and promoting world peace.
