The purpose of the Newborn Sequencing In Genomic medicine and public HealTh (NSIGHT) program is to explore, in a limited but deliberate manner, the implications, challenges and opportunities associated with the possible use of genomic sequence information in the newborn period. Funds will be used to stimulate research in three component projects specifically applicable to newborn screening:

1) Acquisition and analysis of genomic datasets that expand considerably the scale of data available for analysis in the newborn period.
