The William R. and Lenore Mote Eminent Scholar Chair in Fisheries Ecology and Enhancement and its adjunct positions were established at Florida State University in the Department of Biological Science in November of 1994 with a generous gift from the late Bill Mote (1906-2000) of Sarasota, Florida. The endowment was created to allow collaborative interactions between Florida State University and the Mote Marine Laboratory.
