Changes to Academic Public Health Training
The British Medical Association (BMA) is urging the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) to collaborate with partners to promote more equitable access to academic public health training.
The BMA's Resident Doctors Committee, Public Health Medicine Registrars Subcommittee, and Joint Academic Trainees Subcommittee have expressed concerns about changes that will restrict opportunities for resident doctors in public health to engage in academic training in England.
Public health is a medical specialty with a well-established multiprofessional route of entry.
The BMA is calling upon the NIHR to work with partners to support more equitable access to academic public health training.
The proposed changes are expected to worsen the medical recruitment crisis.
