The BMJ Group’s mission to provide access to evidence based medicine to doctors across the world comes closer to fulfilment as a result of a new licensing agreement in China.
The BMJ Group has signed an exclusive four year agreement with the Peking University Medical Press (PUMP) to translate and publish BMJ Clinical Evidence. The first editions will be published in Mandarin this month.
Rachel Armitage, Publishing Director, BMJ Knowledge said:
“The BMJ Group is delighted to be working with PUMP as publishers of the Chinese language edition of Clinical Evidence in print. Now over 2 million doctors worldwide have access to the very latest and most relevant medical knowledge for treatment decisions through access to Clinical Evidence.
Lu Yindao, President of PUMP said:
“PUMP is very pleased to work with the BMJ Group to introduce BMJ Clinical Evidence to potentially millions of professional users in China. Introduction of BMJ Clinical Evidence into the country will help China’s work to combat infectious and chronic diseases and help it to be better prepared to provide wider and better healthcare services to its 1.3 billion people. More than a hundred prominent administrators, scholars and doctors of various clinical disciplines in China have participated in this important project. We are confident that BMJ Clinical Evidence will soon become a key resource for physicians and policy makers in China.”
