FSMB Celebrating 100 Years

On July 14, 1913, the New York Times reported on the creation of FSMB: "The chief functions of these State Boards are to decide upon the qualifications to be required in aspirants for the right to practice medicine, to see that none do practice it without the fixed minimum of knowledge and experience, and to encourage or suppress medical schools according to whether or not they provide reasonably adequate facilities for their students."

The FSMB is celebrating its Centennial in 2012. For more information about the history of FSMB and medical regulation, please visit its Centennial website.
