Abstract
Implementing genomic sequencing into newborn screening programs allows for significant expansion in the number and scope of conditions detected. We sought to explore public preferences and perspectives on which conditions to include in genomic newborn screening (gNBS).
We recruited English-speaking members of the Australian public over 18 years of age, using social media, and invited them to participate in online focus groups.
