    Robyn Nadolny, chief of the Defense Health Agency-Public Health vector-borne disease branch in Aberdeen, Maryland, weighs a white-footed mouse (Peromyscus leocupus) after removing attached ticks and taking a small tissue sample. Nadolny was one of the lead authors of a newly published study in the Journal of Medical Entomology providing critical insights into the emergence of babesiosis in the mid-Atlantic region and documenting human cases and the presence of the causative agent Babesia microti in local tick populations.
