Wendy Grube, Sharon Irving and Lea Ann Matura: Nursing Fellows

Three University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing (Penn Nursing) faculty members will be inducted as 2016 Fellows of the American Academy of Nursing (AAN) during its annual policy conference, Transforming Health, Driving Policy, taking place October 20-22 in Washington, DC. This year’s fellows are Wendy D. Grube, practice associate professor and director of the Center for Global Women’s Health; Sharon Y. Irving, assistant professor of pediatric nursing; and Lea Ann Matura, assistant professor of nursing.

Fellow selection criteria include evidence of significant contributions to nursing and health care, and sponsorship by two current AAN fellows. Applicants are reviewed by a panel composed of elected and appointed fellows, and selection is based, in part, on the extent the nominee’s nursing career has influenced health policies and the health and well-being of all.
