Medical information publisher The BMJ Group, UK, has announced the appointment of Dr Rubin Minhas as Clinical Director of the Group’s Evidence Centre, which was launched last year. Dr Minhas joins the Evidence Centre having spent a year as a Harkness Fellow in Health Care Policy and Practice at the RAND Corporation and the Southern California Evidence Based Practice Centre in Santa Monica, USA.
Dr Minhas, a GP by background, acquired his appreciation of the systems approach to healthcare delivery while working under Professor Roger Boyle and during ten years spent working as a regional advisor in the UK NHS. His interest in implementation science led to a national appointment to the NICE Technology Appraisal Committee in 2002. Dr Minhas has co-developed NICE guidelines for cardiovascular disease, and gained national and international experience of applying evidence based decision making and improving healthcare quality.
The BMJ Evidence Centre is internationally renowned for its independent, thorough and robust analysis and synthesis of clinical research. It publishes Clinical Evidence, Best Health (formerly Best Treatments), Evidence Updates and commissioned evidence reviews. Also, it provides point-of-care and reference tools to healthcare professionals.
