Dr. Cameron is the past-president of the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society (ILADS), a nonprofit medical society, dedicated to the diagnosis and appropriate treatment of Lyme and other tick-borne diseases.

He is the lead author of two peer-reviewed treatment guidelines for Lyme disease. ILADS Treatment Guidelines for the Management of Lyme Disease was published in 2004, with a newer, updated edition released in 2014.
