About
Dr. Tess Chase is a reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist whose work bridges surgical education and clinical practice in reproductive medicine. Her research centers on optimizing fellowship training through surgical simulation, with a particular focus on laparoscopic skill development for reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI) fellows. In her most cited work, "Surgical simulation supplements reproductive endocrinology and infertility fellowship training" (2020, 4 citations), Dr. Chase demonstrated that structured surgical boot camps significantly enhance laparoscopic proficiency among REI fellows while also increasing their motivation to integrate surgical skills into future practice. This study further examined the relationship between fellowship in vitro fertilization (IVF) volume and surgical exposure, providing critical insights for program directors seeking to balance clinical training with procedural competence. Though early in her career, Dr. Chase's contributions address a pressing gap in REI education—the need for standardized surgical curricula alongside high-volume IVF training. Her work has implications for improving patient outcomes by ensuring that graduating fellows possess both the medical expertise and technical dexterity required for comprehensive reproductive care.
