Purpose

Support cost of travel, speaker fees, honorariums and miscellaneous expenses associated with hosting leaders in nursing informatics.

History

The lectureship supported by this fund has evolved into a biennial event, the Rita Kobb Informatics Symposium. The fund was created by a gift made in honor of Rita Kobb, a UF nursing alumna and nursing informatics expert. The founding gift was from Bill and Patti Alcorn, Rita’s sister and brother-in-law.
