BMJ (previously BMJ Group, rebranded in 2013), is a provider of journals, clinical decision support, events and medical education. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of the British Medical Association. Established in 1840 with the publication of the Provincial Medical and Surgical Journal (later the first edition of the British Medical Journal), it is now a fully commercial organisation with about 550 staff and offices based in 7 locations around the world including North America, the United Kingdom, Singapore, India and China.

The company's products and services also extend to offer rights and licensing, targeted advertising and sponsorship opportunities for pharmaceutical and healthcare companies, recruiters, and the general medical community.

BMJ campaigns

  • 1865-71: Baby farming - BMJ was largely responsible for the Infant Life Protection Act of 1872, directed against the lucrative practice of baby farming. The BMJ led a series of exposures which forced an inquiry into the state of London's work-house infirmaries.[4]

  • 2014: The BMJ journal was awarded the coveted "Patients Included" badge; the first medical journal to receive it.
