Dr. Ken Emonds, who received Chadron State’s Distinguished Alumni Award and was the speaker at commencement in May, will return to the campus as a visiting scholar Sept. 6-10.

Emonds, who hitchhiked from his home in Connecticut to enroll at CSC in the 1966, is founder and clinical director of the New England Center for Orthomolecular and Environmental Medicine at North Hampton, N.H. He studied with Linus Pauling, the only person to receive two Nobel Prizes, while earning his doctorate.

Using the latest techniques to determine exact dose therapy of 183 natural substances and nutrients specific to the individual patient’s DNA, Dr. Emonds works with patients who are victims of cancer, autoimmune diseases and illnesses related to the environment.

He has pioneered the use of electrodermal titration to create a safer, more efficient system of allergy testing and treatment, and has developed a new generation of deproteinized allergy extracts for inhalants, foods, chemicals, viral and bacterial extracts and autogenous vaccines.

While on campus, Dr. Emonds will speak to health professions, nutrition and psychology classes and renew acquaintances with several long-time friends.
