ILADS Annual Pioneer Award Dinner
about The Award Dinner
ILADS invites you to join us for a rare opportunity to attend a prestigious charity event and engage with some of the world’s leading Lyme disease researchers as we together address the number one vector-borne epidemic worldwide.
Join us on Saturday, October 11, 2014 at the Grand Hyatt in Washington, DC, to honor a pioneer, Charles R. Jones, MD, in the fight against Lyme disease. At the age of 85, Dr. Jones could have retired, but instead has devoted his remaining years to his active practice of pediatric and adolescent Lyme disease, making treatment available to many who would otherwise be without appropriate medical intervention. He has done this at substantial risk to himself, given the controversial, contentious debate in the medical field raging around the diagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease.
