NEWBORN SCREENING SUMMIT:
Envisioning a Future for Newborn Screening

December 7 - 8, 2009
Bethesda North Marriott Hotel & Conference Center

Join healthcare providers, researchers, state program facilitators, families, laboratory professionals, and others to vision and strategize about the U.S. newborn screening system.

During the summit we will ask:
    * What is at stake for the future?
    * How can we answer the call for access to information and the
    integration of perspectives as the newborn screening system
    continues to develop?
Registration information and summit details are now available.
