Sudan is a country with huge natural resources and this may provide a potential for a rich and diverse health research economy especially in medicine. It is important that both basic and applied medical research will be directed and prioritized according to the need of Sudanese communities based on experiments tested in the lab and can be implemented in bedside practice. This can help in facing the health challenges associated with communicable and non-communicable disease. Research in medical education is also needed especially with an increase in the numbers of medical schools. Research for everyone involved in medical education and practice should be adopted as a way forward in Sudan. In other words, research engaged medical force will improve the medical care in Sudan. For instance, doctors can develop expertise, deep learning in their specialties and enhance their chance of developing theories and proposal (satisfy the need for doctors inquiring minds). University hospitals and patients will benefit from recent advancements in medicine in term of diagnostic and treatment. Importantly, research is bringing satisfaction, dynamism and opportunity for doctors to leave a legacy for the next generations of doctors in Sudan. During the pandemic of COVID-19, it is clear that more research is needed in Sudan. Importantly, diabetes, obesity and hypertension are known to have a high prevalence in Sudan and also risk factors for COVID-19. This is a challenging time for the health system in Sudan, and perhaps investing in research will help in keeping people well and open new venues for health service in Sudan. We very much hope that this article will increase understanding and enthusiasm about research in communicable, non-communicable diseases, medical education and social medicine. Therefore, we feel that every doctor in Sudan should engage in research activities so that current and future patients can benefit from the outcomes of these research activities. © Journal of Public Health and Emergency.
