Dr. Joseph J. Burrascano Jr. - The Lyme and Associated Diseases Registry ™, Watermill, NY
The Database Program collects information from physicians domestically and internationally on the treatment and diagnosis methods used for Lyme disease. This program has the unique ability to filter all of the methods used by health care professionals into a comprehensive database system. This database will ultimately allow researchers to identify and publicize the most commonly used and effective measures for the diagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease and is a critical component to finding a cure.

Genesis Laboratories - Decreasing the Risk of Lyme Disease Using Hosts
Wellington, CO
This program develops a novel approach for Lyme disease control by decreasing deer tick burdens on wild white-footed mice, the most common mammalian host of the tick. Suppression of ticks on potentially infected hosts could be obtained by the use of rodent baits containing orally delivered insecticides called insect growth regulators.

International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society - Physicians Training Program
Bethesda, MD
This program provides medical practitioners, from naturopaths to MDs, the opportunity to study with a Lyme-literate physician. Through this experience, participants develop the skills necessary to properly diagnose and treat Lyme disease. These professionals then bring this skill set back to their community in order to better treat their patients and give relief to the many who suffer from the debilitating effects of Lyme disease.

Lyme Induced Autism Foundation - Connections between Lyme Disease and Autism
Corona, CA
This grant funds the study titled: Determination of Lyme DNA in Blood Samples of Subjects with Autism. This study explores the idea that Lyme disease is passed congenitally from mother to newborn and that Lyme disease is found in newborns that have later been diagnosed with autism. We feel that the results of this study will bring the Lyme disease, autism and government health agency communities together to address the potential connection between autism and Lyme disease.
