    Will you assist with our research?

    Dr. Dardick and MFP staff are part of a research team at Yale University, Tufts and NIH studying various aspects of tickborne illness including how people respond to tick bites as well as infeciton with babesia, anaplasma, and novel tickborne pathogens. 

    We think that the degree of redness, itching and swelling may tell us something about who is likely to acquire Lyme disease, anaplasmosis (ehrlichiosis) or babesia - the most common tick-borne infections.

    If you have been bitten by a tick we would like to examine you within 48 hours of the tick bite. This will be done at a scheduled medical appointment (usual fees apply). We will take a sample of blood now and in 30 days, you will fill out a brief questionnaire and diary which will tell us something about your immunity to the tick bite.  We will also test the blood sample to see if you have acquired one of the diseases mentioned above.  There are no charges for the research-related blood testing. However, if you have signs or symptoms of illness there may be testing or treatment for which usual charges apply.
