TO THE EDITOR:
Academic medicine has been in decline over recent years and is facing a crisis in recruitment. In response to this trend, a working party was appointed to coordinate the International Campaign to Revitalise Academic Medicine (1). More than 40 international medical journals, including BMJ and The Lancet, and a number of prominent organizations are supporting this campaign (2). The campaign aims to consult all stakeholders and provide a truly international response to the challenges and opportunities facing academic medicine.
Teaching is central to academic medicine, and those who work in this field have traditionally been the educators of tomorrow's doctors. Students are significant stakeholders in academic medicine, so student involvement in this campaign is crucial. Consequently, a student advisory group to the International Campaign to Revitalise Academic Medicine was established and an initial meeting was held in October 2004 at the British Medical Association.
