Bay Area Lyme Foundation is a research-focused organization based in Portola Valley, California, dedicated to advancing solutions that stop the spread of Lyme disease. It seeks to accelerate progress by supporting and coordinating research across key areas such as diagnostics, treatments, ecology, awareness, and prevention. The organization maintains a network of scientific collaborators and applies a disciplined process to advance promising research projects. Its activities target researchers in academia and the private sector working on Lyme- and tick-borne disease-related questions, reflecting its role within the broader U.S. Lyme disease research ecosystem. The foundation positions itself as a facilitator of collaborative work and program-based initiatives within the field. In late 2025, it announced the call for applicants for the 2026 Emerging Leader Awards to engage early-career researchers across sectors.
