Glad to see ACMG stepping up to support the continuation of evidence-based reviews to inform national newborn screening recommendations after termination of the federal advisory committee
In response to the #ACHDNC dissolution, ACMG is organizing a new advisory framework for #newbornscreening, starting with a virtual stakeholder roundtable this summer. Outreach to key groups begins soon. More to come. bit.ly/3IngaCi #MedicalGenetics #RUSP #PublicHealth
