Improving tick removal across care settings

This project has been secured to protect intellectual property.

The Tick Team will design a device to be used both in the medical field and for ordinary consumers that is contactless and removes a tick from the skin. The device will capture the tick for examination.

Project Overview

The Tick Team hopes to improve the methods commonly used today to remove ticks by making the process more safe and efficient. Ideally, we want to capture the tick and keep it alive to be examined.
