Education

Ormel graduated in 1964 from the HBS-B in Veenendaal, Netherlands, and received his bachelor in sociology from the University of Groningen in 1968. In 1973 he received his master in sociology at the University of Groningen. In 1980 he finished his Ph.D. thesis about subjective well-being under the title “Difficulty with life or a difficult life”.[2][3]

Career

Between 1980 and 1984 Ormel was assistant professor at the department of psychiatry. In 1994 he was appointed professor of Social Epidemiology. Beginning in 1996 he held a chair in Social Psychiatry, in particular Psychiatric Epidemiology, at the University of Groningen. He has been a visiting professor at the University of Washington, the Center for Health Studies in Seattle and the Institute of Psychiatry in London, and fellow-in-residence at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study (NIAS) in the Humanities and Social Sciences of the KNAW. He was the principal investigator in the large-scale research projects Myocardial Infarction and Depression-Intervention Trial (MIND-IT) and First-line Intervention Study (INSTEL).[2][4]

In 2001, Ormel and his Rotterdam colleague Frank Verhulst founded the long-term research project TRAILS (TRacking Adolescents’ Individual Lives Survey).[5] This research tracks the physical and mental development of over 2500 adolescents in the north of the Netherlands and has led to results for preventive and curative treatments. Many of his former Ph.D. students and postdocs have found academic positions and are at the forefront of their terrain, including Albertine J. (Tineke) Oldehinkel, Peter de Jonge, and René Veenstra.

In 2007 Ormel founded the Interdisciplinary Center Psychopathology and Emotion Regulation at the University of Groningen.[2] On 23 January 2014 Ormel was made a Knight in the Order of the Netherlands Lion.[6] He retired in 2014 and intended to continue teaching part time and to continue work on TRAILS and other research projects.[4]
