This is a timely talk during Maine’s Lyme Disease Awareness Month about ticks: ecology, diseases, prevention measures. Chuck Lubelczyk is a field scientist with Maine Health Institute for Research Vector-Borne Disease Laboratory.
He has been working on tick research since the late 1990s, focusing on the interactions between ticks and mosquitoes and their host and habitat requirements.
As a Vector-borne Disease Work Group member, he is the attendee most-likely-to-participate-while-conducting fieldwork. He knows ticks from a scientific, practical, and personal standpoint. Join us for an engaging and informative talk from one of Maine’s top tick experts for our Lyme Disease Awareness Month-Forestry Friday.
