LDA Programs & Achievements
The Lyme Disease Association has worked hard to provide programs which will lead to the prevention and cure of Lyme disease. LDA has been successful in partnering with Time for Lyme, its Connecticut affiliate, to open the Lyme & Tick-Borne Diseases research Center at Columbia University where researchers are studying chronic Lyme disease. LDA has established Literati with Lyme, famous authors who have Lyme disease themselves who work to educate others, and LDA has hosted 20 Lyme & Tick-Borne Diseases Scientific Conferences, 18 in conjunction with Columbia University.
