It's wonderful to see funding become available to help us all study and grown our knowledge about certain disease we screen for at the Maritime Newborn Screening Program. Every effort to learn more gets us closer to better treatments and possible cures. #grateful

June is #ThyroidMonth in Canada. Did you know the Maritime Newborn Screening Program screens babies born in NS, NB and PEI for #CongenitalHypothyroidism? Without fast detection & treatment children with CH may not grow normally and their brains may be affected. Good thing #newbornscreening exists!
