Our Team

Our lab functions because of the hard work of research staff and student interns who work throughout the year to help collect data and keep our projects moving forward.  If you’re interested in learning more about seasonal student internships and/or other opportunities to work on tickborne disease prevention projects at WCSU, click here.
