Working Group 2: Every Newborn Counts: The Quest for Equitable Newborn Screening in Europe
Over the past decade, newborn screening programs throughout Europe have seen significant advancements, both in the number of countries adopting them and the variety of disorders they screen for. Despite this progress, considerable disparities remain between countries, with the number of screened conditions varying widely. This session will explore the reasons behind these inequalities and discuss the advantages of achieving more equitable access to newborn screening across Europe for both patients and society.
