1 January 1993) was a French-American scientist best known for his research on

the physiological bases of hunger and the metabolism of essential nutrients,

and for his role in shaping policy on world hunger at both the national and

international levels. As a professor at the Harvard School of Public

Health, Mayer directed a laboratory that did groundbreaking work on

the hypothalamic regulation of obesity and various metabolic disorders. In

1968-69, having worked as an adviser to the World Health Organization and UNICEF, he was appointed principal organizer and chair of the

first White House Conference on Food, Nutrition, and Health. At Harvard University, he

served as Master of Dudley House before

leaving in 1976 to become the tenth President of Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts,

where he is given credit for having brought about an unprecedented rise in the

university's national reputation.[1] He died unexpectedly on January 1, 1993. Mayer

was born in Paris in 1920 into a distinguished French scientific family. His

father, André Mayer, was a celebrated physiologist at the College de France,

his mother an outstanding doctoral student in André Mayer's laboratory when

they met. Jean Mayer's sister, Dr. Geneviéve Massé would become a Professor of

Biostatistics at the French National Superior School of Public Health. Mayer

worked in his father's laboratory as a schoolboy, while devoting the greater

part of his intellectual energies to mathematics—differential and integral

calculus, analytical geometry, series and functions, and theoretical physics.

He later made extensive use of mathematical models in his work on the

physiology of hunger and nutrition. At age nineteen, he was admitted to the École Normale Superieure as

one of only 20 science students from all of France. At the outbreak of World

War II, he had earned a bachelor's degree in Philosophy (summa cum laude), a

bachelor's degree in Mathematics (magna cum laude), and a master's degree in

Physics and Chemistry
