Abstract

The British Journal of Dermatology (BJD) is currently ranked among the top three dermatology journals worldwide, with a recent increase in impact factor from 9·3 in 2021 to 11·1 in 2022. The BJD publishes leading scientific research from across the world, and the accessibility and real-world impact of this work can be increased with involvement from patients. Following on from previous editorials,1, 2 we have successfully maintained our partnership with patients to ensure that what we publish has a real-world impact.3 Our patient associate editors have first-hand experience of living with a skin condition, and were recruited in a collaborative approach to champion patient involvement in the journal.3 With the recent appointment of Olivia Hughes, the BJD is proud to have two patient associate editors with embedded links to skin-related patient societies and networks.
