Jalid Sehouli (born 19. April 1968 in Berlin) is a German gynaecologist and oncologist who specializes in ovarian, peritoneal and oviductal cancer. He is a professor at Berlin's Charité hospital and a writer of scientific as well as fiction works.

Life and work

Sehouli is the son of Moroccan parents who fled from Morocco in the 1960s and were illiterate. He grew up in the Berlin working-class district of Wedding.[1] While training to become a nurse he was offered a place to study medicine at Freie Universität Berlin.[2] He studied there from 1989 to 1995.

In 1998 he earned his doctorate with a thesis on "Post-operative Use of Unconventional Cancer Therapies in Gynaecological Oncology". In 2002 he was certified as a specialist in gynaecology and obstetrics. In 2005 he completed his habilitation at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin with a postdoctoral thesis on "Multimodal Management of Malign Ovarian Tumours".

In 2005 he was appointed to teach gynaecology and obstetrics. In 2007 he accepted the offer of a W2 professorship at Berlin's Charité hospital. In 2014 he accepted the offer of the W3 Professorship for Gynaecology for life at the Charité and has since been Director of the Clinic for Gynaecology and a full professor at the Charité.[3] [4]

Sehouli specializes in experimental surgical gynaecology and oncosurgery as well as the subject of doctor-patient communication (e.g. breaking bad news). Sehouli is co-editor of various professional journals and author (first, senior, or co-author) of several hundred articles in national and international journals on all aspects of gynaecology with an emphasis on diagnosis, therapy, and aftercare in gynaecological oncology. He has been, and is, the director of various national and international phase I, II, and III studies of targeted therapies. He is also the editor and author of numerous scientific books or contributions to them.[5]

Sehouli has been a member of the board of Nord-Ostdeutsche Gesellschaft für Gynäkologische Onkologie (NOGGO e.V.)[6] since its foundation in 1998, was Chairman of the Gesellschaft für Geburtshilfe und Gynäkologie in Berlin from 2015 to 2016, is currently the spokesman of the organ commission Ovar of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynäkologische Onkologie (AGO), and is an active member of various national and international associations and bodies of experts.

In 2015 Sehouli received the Roma Focus Award for his contributions to gynaecological oncology, in 2016 the Moroccan King Mohammed VI awarded him an order of merit for his scientific achievements, and in 2017 he won a Diwan Award in Germany.

In 2012 Sehouli published his first work of fiction, Marrakesch. In his second non-scientific book, Und von Tanger fahren die Boote nach irgendwo (2016), he makes Tanger, his parents' home city, the point of departure for philosophical and autobiographical reflections which also involve his life in Berlin.[7] [8] [9] [10] [11]

Sehouli is married to Adak Pirmorady-Sehouli and has four children.
