Partnership for Tick-Borne Diseases Education's (PTDE) mission is to provide online and in-person educational content and materials on tick-borne diseases that can be acquired in the United States. PTDE develops resources that discuss the scientific and clinical evidence for a variety of learners, with content specific to the needs of individual medical professional groups and the general public. PTDE believes that a common understanding of the evidence will encourage the development and use of effective disease prevention programs and foster communication between patients and healthcare professionals that will lead to innovative approaches for diagnosing and managing tick-borne illnesses.
