This grant, offered by a leading health research institution, aims to accelerate the development of innovative screening approaches and therapeutic interventions for critical newborn health conditions. It focuses on disorders currently identified through newborn screening programs, as well as ‘high priority’ genetic conditions with future screening potential. The primary purpose is to address potentially fatal or disabling conditions by facilitating early identification and treatment. Successful proposals will emphasize the creation of accurate screening tests and demonstrate the substantial benefits of early intervention. A ‘high priority’ condition is defined as one not yet recommended for standard screening, but where prompt detection and treatment would significantly improve infant outcomes and reduce disability.

| Description: | This FOA encourages research relevant to the development of novel screening approaches and/or therapeutic interventions for potentially fatal or disabling conditions that have been identified through newborn screening, as well as for “high priority” genetic conditions where screening may be possible in the near future. Having an accurate screening test, as well as demonstrating the benefits of early intervention or treatment, are important criteria for including a condition on a newborn screening panel. This FOA defines a “high priority” condition as one where screening is not currently recommended, but infants with the condition would significantly benefit from early identification and treatment. |
