Newborn Screening SPOTlight PodcastGenomics England: The Role of Genomic Sequencing of NewbornsIn the United States, shortly after birth, every newborn receives a series of screening tests to identify treatable diseases. Every September we celebrate this amazing system of research, public health, and clinical care that saves the lives of babies every day with Newborn Screening Awareness month. Neonatal screening also occurs around the world and many countries are working on innovative approaches to use genomics to significantly expand, or improve, our ability to screen, diagnose, and treat hundreds if not thousands of additional diseases. We are excited to feature one of these innovators on the Newborn Screening Spotlight, Dr. David B...
