About

Biography

Ben (Willem) Mol joined the Aberdeen Centre for Women's Health Research in 2020 in a part-time position next to his position as professor of O&G at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia. Professor Mol continues to work towards the development of large collaborative networks internationally: he has strong working relationships in The Netherlands, Europe and the United Kingdom, across Australia and New Zealand, as well as the United States, Canada, China, Viet Nam, South Africa, and Brazil. He (re)-demonstrated the effectiveness of cervical pessary to prevent preterm birth, balloon for induction of labour and tubal flushing for infertility.

Working in The Netherlands until 2013, he was instrumental in setting up the Dutch research consortium in Women's health. He was recognized in Nature as one of the 100 most proliferative authors in Medicine and in his specialty . His professional adagium is “A Day without Randomisation is a Day without Progress”.

Research

Research Overview

 Much medical practice around the world is conducted without evidence that interventions are beneficial to the patient and will not cause harm. Professor Ben Mol aims to develop evidence on the effectiveness of all medical interventions in this area, preferably through large collaborations in randomised clinical trials, to provide insight on the available evidence tailored to the individual patient for both patients and doctors. To achieve this, international collaboration through coordination of research agendas for clinical and basic research, and the establishment of guidelines is essential. The group aims to involve young people, create large datasets and initiate international collaboration.
