Our lab’s recent discovery of the pathogen Orientia in NC chiggers was published by Emerging Infectious Diseases and featured in news outlets across North Carolina. In addition to this study, we continue to investigate the spread of pathogens by blacklegged ticks in NC and contribute to the understanding of how to control the spread of Leishmaniasis in sand flies. See the full post of the Wasserberg Lab’s current research here in the UNCG Research Magazine.
