Chan School of Public Health. [3] [4] [5]
Dr. Messerlian’s research primarily focuses on how the natural, built, and social environments impact male and female fertility, pregnancy, and child health across the reproductive lifecourse. [1] She is a strong advocate for considering the role of male partners in supporting women’s health and fertility, emphasizing the need for a holistic, couple-centered approach in reproductive medicine. [1] [6] Her research findings have identified connections between exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals, such as phthalates and phenols, and various markers of impaired fertility and reproductive health, including preterm birth, birth size, and semen quality.

In 2023, Dr. Messerlian founded Vie – The Art & Science of Baby Making, a digital therapeutic that leverages big data and artificial intelligence (AI) to personalize fertility prevention, care, and treatment of couples attempting to conceive. [9] Vie uses scientific research and individual user data to prioritize the holistic health of couples and encourages them to enhance their overall well-being during natural conception or while undergoing medical fertility interventions. [9] Vie’s mission is to provide an affordable and scalable population-based fertility solution that aims to democratize care across barriers characterized by gender, socio-economic status, education, race, and financial resources.
