Ten of the world’s top scientists from leading institutions discuss their scientific insights on the problems and potential solutions for Lyme disease.

Senator Richard Blumenthall US Senate Speech

‘The cases of Lyme are exploding in number and their severity impacts our economy as well as quality of life for Americans’

Introduced by David Rothman- Lyme Advocate

CDC reported 10 fold increase in the number of cases in 2013.

Dr Neil Spector Cancer researcher talks about implications in organ donation. He had a heart transplant due to undiagnosed Lyme Disease.


‘In the era of genomics are we using archaic unreliable methods to test for Lyme?’

Dr William H Robinson Stanford University talks about the need to develop next generation tests that are much more accurate and sensitive to identify people with Borrelia Burgdorferi as well as other tick borne infections.

Dr Safwan Jaradeh Stanford University Neuromuscular and Neurological faculty. ‘Nobody seems to think well could it be something like Lyme.’

Dr Brian Fallon Columbia University 
Director of the Lyme and Tick-borne diseases research center at Columbia.
