Patient Powered Lyme Innovation - Let Your Voice Be Heard

Dear friends, 

I’m excited to introduce a Patient-Powered Lyme disease Initiative and encourage your participation:

The Dean Center for Tick Borne Illness at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Charlestown MA recently helped lead a Lyme Innovation “Hackathon” at MIT and UC Berkeley to problem-solve key issues facing Lyme disease.*

One project that won the support of the judges was the idea to create a patient-powered crowd source platform to give patients a stronger voice in Lyme disease.

This “Patient-Powered Lyme Initiative” is a patient voice/big data/open data project that will help drive priorities and solutions for those suffering with Lyme disease and tick borne illness.

About Me

My name is Robert Sabatino. I am a retired fourth generation New York City Police Officer, happily married for 20 years, with four beautiful children.  I was very active in my children's life, coached football and baseball. I used to enjoy the outdoors camping and fishing with my family. That all started ending about twelve years ago.
