On behalf of the WPATH Board of Directors (BOD), we want to thank all of the outstanding candidates for putting their names forward to run for the USPATH Board Member positions and for their willingness to serve USPATH and WPATH.
We are pleased to announce the USPATH Board of Directors:
• Josh Safer, MD, FACP – President
• Erica Anderson, PhD – President Elect
• Emilia Lombardi, PhD – Secretary/Treasurer
• Thomas (Dana) Bevan, PhD – 2-year term
• John Capozuca, PhD – 2-year term
• Maddie Deutsch, MD, MPH – 3-year term
• Lisa Griffin, PhD – 2-year term
• Johanna Olson-Kennedy, MS, MD – 3-year term
• Asa Radix, MD, MPH – 3-year term
As the full USPATH BOD is now in place, the interim USPATH Steering Committee has stepped aside as previously planned. The USPATH BOD will move forward to solidify bylaws, organize committees, and conduct business under the WPATH umbrella.
We also would like to thank WPATH members who nominated candidates and all of the candidates who ran in the WPATH elections. All candidates will receive notifications of the results later this week and the successful candidates will be asked to accept their positions on the Board of Directors. Once we have received those written confirmations, we will be releasing these results to the membership.
Sincerely,
Gail Knudson, MD
President, World Professional Association for Transgender Health
