Received Date: Apr 01, 2025 / Published Date: Apr 29, 2025
Abstract
This collection of articles explores the evolving landscape of newborn screening, addressing global disparities, the expansion
of screening panels, and the integration of genomic sequencing. It delves into associated ethical considerations, such as informed
consent and managing secondary findings. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on programs is reviewed, alongside advances like
rapid Whole-Genome Sequencing for rare diseases and the clinical utility of screening for conditions like Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
Discussions highlight quality assurance, emerging technologies, and policy challenges, emphasizing the need for equitable access
and responsible implementation.
