MEDIA TIP - Diagnosing Connecticut Towns for Lyme

Article Body
On Thursday, July 26, nationally recognized Lyme disease expert - and Lyme sufferer - Dr. Eva Sapi will begin combing Connecticut towns for ticks to determine the risk that state residents face. Sapi, assistant professor of Biology and Environmental Science at the University of New Haven, and her graduate students, will crawl and climb to gather and count ticks in parks throughout the towns. The group will then return to the university to test them.

To accompany the group and for more information, contact Dr. Eva Sapi at 203-980-5688.
