, About USMLE Committees & Task Forces
The United States Medical Licensing Examination® (USMLE®) program is both grateful and proud to list the
names of the medical educators, academic researchers, practicing clinicians and other professionals who
served as committee or task force members in 2021. Included you will find a list of cohorts comprising
individuals whose expertise and dedication made it possible for the USMLE program to continue to serve
the state and regional medical boards and the medical education community. These individuals enable the
USMLE to achieve its goals of assessing a physician's ability to apply knowledge, concepts, principles and
patient-centered skills.

United States; nearly 25% were from the Central United States; 25% were from the Northeast; and more
