Register NOW! LDA's 8th annual Lyme & Tick-Borne Diseases Conference
Jointly sponsored by Columbia University & Lyme Disease Association: Bridging the Medical Chasm

October 26, 2007, Boston, Massachusetts, 8.75 category 1 CME credits (see flyer) CLOSED

Presenters include CDC's Dr. J. Livingood, whose 2006 paper concludes that the "invasion of neural cells by B. burgdorferi provides a putative mechanism for the organism to avoid the host's immune response;" Finland's Dr. Hetta Yrjanainen whose study shows viable Bb after Ceftriaxone therapy in mice, and Dr. Katherine Feldman and her work with Tularemia. The day will conclude with a 70 minute presentation with rebuttals on the two standards of care for Lyme disease: ILADS and IDSA, from Dr. Ray Stricker, President, ILADS, and Dr. Paul Auwaerter from Johns Hopkins University.

*CME – Continuing Medical Education credits for Physicians (8.75 Category 1 CME credits)
