Jose Victor ("J.V.") Nable, MD
President-Elect Georgetown University School of Medicine
Candidate Statement
Thank you for considering me for the President-Elect position on CDEM’s executive committee! I graduated from the University of Virginia School of Medicine and completed my EM residency training at the University of Maryland. I served as Georgetown’s EM clerkship director between 2016 and 2025, and have been the department's Director of Undergraduate Medical Education since 2024. In 2025, I was appointed Georgetown's Associate Dean for Core Curriculum. I have been a member of CDEM’s Visiting Students Task Force, and chaired that group in 2019-2020. I have also been on Executive Committee since 2022, having served as Treasurer, Secretary, and Member-at-Large.
If elected to the CDEM Executive Committee, I will advocate continuing the exceptional progress CDEM has made to build us all up to succeed as clerkship directors. I credit CDEM for building the relationships and resources that I leverage to position and inspire our students to thrive. As a leader on the Executive Committee, I will champion the sharing of best practices among our membership.
We are at a dynamic moment for EM, especially for our students, clerkship directors, and other UME leaders. CDEM is the leading voice of UME educators in our specialty. The switch to a new residency application platform, potential changes to EM residency programs from the ACGME, and a renewal of our own CDEM EM curriculum make for exciting times in our specialty. I look forward to partnering with all of you as we continue on our specialty's journey.
