Core Tip	Tick-borne diseases (TBDs) are a major public health concern that has increased in the past three decades. Molecular biology techniques for the screening of ticks, use of “Omics” approaches and the incorporation of analytical methods to the study of ticks and their associated microorganisms are promising tools for a more accurate differential diagnosis of TBDs. Nevertheless, a clinical approach and high level of suspicion remain essential for the diagnosis and proper handling of TBDs before the incorporation of these innovative technologies to the routine in clinical practice.
