Do you ever get ticked off by Lyme? Join Cornell HEART as we investigate Lyme disease — a dangerous illness carried by ticks that affects over 7,000 New York citizens every year. We will delve into the symptoms and treatment of Lyme, while also examining why ticks are so good at carrying and transmitting this disease. We will also do an interactive Lyme-based activity where we focus on proper removal of ticks.

In this course, we will be exploring the growing practice of art therapy, why it works, and its effect on our mental well-being. We will also do a fun activity to see the effects of art therapy first-hand.
