About Marli Mesibov

I believe health is inextricably linked to economics, education, and wellness. How does content strategy impact health? Patients can't care for a chronic condition if they don't understand what their doctor is telling them. They (we!) can't take the medication if the pill bottle makes no sense. And they can't make health improvements unless they are motivated to make lifestyle changes. You can find me at Verily in Cambridge, MA, on Twitter as @marsinthestars, or speaking at UX and content strategy conferences. I am passionate about improving the lives of people around the world.
