APPS Global and UK congratulates Dr Kamran Abbasi on his appointment as the new editor in chief of The BMJ ( British Medical Journal). He will take up the post on 1 January 2022.

It’s a proud moment for APPS UK as Kamran Abbasi has been APPS UK Executive Member.

Welcoming the appointment, BMJ’s chief executive, Chris Jones, said, “ Kamran’s editorial experience, clear sense of purpose, and strong commitment to The BMJ’s values of credibility and integrity are what distinguished his candidacy. We are proud to appoint a British Asian to this important role. This is a first in our history, but Kamran is also the first person of Asian origin to be editor in chief of any of the top four international medical journals.”
