Professor Brocklehurst is the Director of the Institute for Women’s Health at UCL and is known internationally as a pioneer in conducting large clinical trials of obstetric and perinatal interventions, which have improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of women and their children. His research has both influenced clinical practice and been innovative, including two trials of Caesarean section surgical techniques that have changed clinical practice worldwide. He established the UK Obstetric Surveillance System to study rare disorders of pregnancy, which has resulted in over 40 completed studies of rare disorders of pregnancy, informing clinical care for a range of conditions.
