Dr. Elizabeth L. Maloney is a family physician by training yet her current focus is on tick-borne diseases education and policy. She began providing comprehensive, evidence-based, accredited continuing medical education courses for physicians in 2007 and subsequently became the founder and president of Partnership for Tick-borne Diseases Education, a non-profit organization providing online and live evidence-based continuing medical education programming and materials on tick-borne diseases for physicians and other healthcare professionals. The hallmark of her teaching is that it represents a broad-based and detailed evaluation of the evidence.
