LDA has funded research published in 46 peer-reviewed journals. Its recent 19th annual Scientific Conference was the best yet, featuring cutting edge research and information by top researchers, physicians, scientists, and more.
Their army of Volunteers has kept overhead costs to 3% or less.

- Along with LDA which is an exceptional organization, there are also ways to support the work of ILADS or even their physician training program specifically, ILADEF.
. . . We fight to make the patient voice stronger, to support science-based advocacy, to create legislative change, and to create a future where Lyme patients can receive the treatments they need to get well. . . . -
