Please join us for an overview of the Center for Lyme Action’s recently released policy paper “The State of Lyme Disease Research in the United States.”

Nicole Bell will present CLA’s research paper that explores the progress that has been made to find diagnostics and treatments for Lyme and tick-borne disease. It makes 26 recommendations for research investments by the federal government and calls for an annual investment of $500 million – $1 billion to find a cure. The plan outlines five areas of opportunity in tick-borne disease research, including improving fundamental knowledge, detection, prevention, treatment, and research tools and resources.

In addition, Bonnie Crater, CLA co-founder will provide a Lyme and TBD legislative update.chRegistration is limited to first 500 people.  To register click here.  If you miss the cutoff for registration please go to the PA Lyme Resource Network Facebook Page to see a livestream of the webinar.
