Genetics Experts Support Adding Hundreds of Treatable Rare Diseases to Newborn Screening
A study found that 88% of experts surveyed on rare diseases agreed that DNA testing to reveal treatable genetic disorders should be available for all infants. This additional screening could allow lifesaving treatments to be delivered to babies sooner.

Transforming Clinical & Translational Research
Turning scientific discoveries into clinical advances often is an inefficient process due to insufficient resources and too few specially trained researchers. NCATS’ CTSA Program supports an innovative national network of medical research institutions that work together to improve the translational research process to get more treatments to more patients more quickly.
CTSA Program institutions collaborate locally, regionally and nationally, fostering innovation in training and research methodologies. NCATS continues to build on the strong foundation of the CTSA Program to tackle system-wide scientific and operational problems to make the clinical and translational research enterprise more efficient.
