Are we ready for #genomic newborn screening? 👶🧬🌏 #RareDisease As multiple large studies launch internationally, Richard Scott and I review the evidence and gaps that now need to be addressed to inform policy 📣Out now in Nature Reviews Genetics 👉rdcu.be/dfF7u 🧵

Genomic newborn screening for rare diseases go.nature.com/3PxIkMH #Review by Prof Zornitza Stark & Richard Scott University of Melbourne Australian Genomics Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI) Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health Genomics England

PLEASE RT💜🧬: The final report of our genetic discrimination project is out today at doi.org/10.26180/23564… It makes clear recommendations to the Aus government to prohibit the use of genetic test results in risk-rated insurance underwriting. A thread about our findings... 1/5

A study into gene-based life insurance discrimination calls for new laws to protect Australians from having their genetic test results used against them. 🇦🇺🧬 doi.org/10.26180/23564… Dr Jane Tiller Paul Lacaze #genomics #research

This 👇👇👇!!! I think data sharing is an absolute must, and can be done in a way that ensures privacy and patient autonomy while providing huge benefits to individuals, research and society. Even a small start is a start, let’s break down the silos. Please do!
