Abstract

The British Student Doctor Journal (BSDJ) has launched its 2026 issue with an editorial from our Editor-in-Chief, exploring why doctors should be agents of health equity and their moral obligation to advance this work through both clinical practice and broader advocacy. It also highlights the importance for trainees to recognise the powerful agency inherent in academic freedom, and to use the research and advocacy published in scholarly journals to help drive change at a scalable, system-wide level.
