Bay Area Lyme Spotlight Series
“There are significant increases after Lyme in fibroids and in endometriosis.”
– Michal Caspi Tal, PhD

Imagine a world where Lyme disease isn’t something people fear, but something we actively prevent, or at least treat more precisely, especially for the many who suffer long after the tick bite. Dr. Michal “Mikki” Caspi Tal, immunoengineer and Associate Scientific Director at the MIT Center for Gynecology Pathology Research, is turning that possibility into reality. Her research isn’t just pushing boundaries, it’s rewriting the rules, especially in regards to women’s health.
“Nobody had looked…at what was happening to the uterus.”
– Michal Caspi Tal, PhD
Watching this incredible Ticktective™ interview with host Dana Parish is an absolute treasure trove of information—and if you or someone you know has ever wondered why some people recover from Lyme and others don’t, why symptoms linger, or why women disproportionately suffer, this is one of the most important conversations you’ll hear this year.
