2014 NBSTRN Network Meeting Speaker Presentations

The NBSTRN had a wonderful turn out for the 2014 NBSTRN Network Meeting, which took place on September 21st and the 22nd at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Bethesda, MD. 

Of the 91 people registered, 83 were able to join us. We learned about the various tools and resources available through the NBSTRN, heard from grantees working with the NBSTRN tools and had the opportunity to learn about ongoing and future pilots in newborn screening. In addition, we heard presentations on the ethical and legal implications associated with doing newborn screening as well as the future of next generation sequencing. To conclude the meeting, we had the opportunity to hear from federal partners who told us about many different research opportunities.
