"Lyme Disease Conference Draws Many Experts"
Lyme disease researchers, clinicians, patients, and advocates have gathered at a conference to discuss their goal: curtailing and ultimately curing Lyme. Savi Glowe, Director of Strategy and Operations at the Institute for Next Generation Healthcare at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, was tasked with getting these brilliant minds in one room for the Lyme Mind Conference. This is the third year of the conference, but the first to allow the public to interact directly with Lyme physicians and researchers. To understand the significance of Lyme Mind, you need to understand how big a problem Lyme disease is and how little attention it is given. This year’s conference was such a success, there was a waitlist.
