Larry Machlin had many and varied interests in nutrition in general and antioxidants in particular. Although he was interested primarily in vitamin E, he shared a curiosity about the actions of carotenoids that most nutritionists have. He served on the Organizing Committee of the 8th International Symposium on Carotenoids that was held in Boston in June 1987. In that role, he was an active participant in helping to select sessions and then identifying the speakers who spoke at those sessions. As part of that Organizing Committee, I had the opportunity to grasp his breadth of science and his knowledge about the most current work, even in fields in which he was not directly involved. His loss has been felt, not only for his scientific contributions but also the warmth and kindness of his personality.
拉里·马赫林对营养领域有着广泛多样的兴趣，尤其是对抗氧化剂。尽管他主要对维生素E感兴趣，但他和大多数营养学家一样，对类胡萝卜素的作用也怀有好奇心。他曾担任1987年6月在波士顿举行的第八届国际类胡萝卜素研讨会组织委员会成员。在这个职位上，他积极参与会议议程的选定，并确定在这些会议上发言的演讲者。作为组织委员会的一员，我有机会了解到他广泛的科学知识以及他对最新研究成果的了解，甚至包括那些他并未直接参与的领域。他的离世令人痛惜，不仅因为他的科学贡献，还因为他温暖善良的个性。
