A Leader in Public Protection.

To allocate resources to other areas of the program, the FSMB will not be providing hard copies of presentation materials for sessions at the 2009 Annual Meeting in Arlington, VA. However, below you will find the presentation materials from the various sessions, and a portable memory card of the materials will be provided on-site. Please note that some sessions have multiple handouts from different presenters and that some handouts may not be available for certain sessions.

Through our various education programs, national experts in the field of medical licensure and discipline explore current and future challenges facing medical regulators today. The FSMB offers quality continuing medical education (CME) opportunities through a joint sponsorship with our accredited sponsor, The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.
