Cover of Board on Health Sciences Policy & Institute of Medicine: Challenges and Opportunities in Using Residual Newborn Screening Samples for Translational Research (PDF)

These specimens also represent a potentially invaluable resource for public health and biomedical research. The IOM held a workshop to examine issues surrounding the use of residual specimens for translational research.
