This podcast is about the advancement of rare disease research told by health professionals, researchers, parents and advocates. This podcast is for you to learn how newborn screening research saves the lives of babies every day through discoveries of new technologies and treatments. You will hear stories from experts who treat babies, the families who care for them, and the researchers who make it all happen. We are your co-hosts, Drs. Kee Chan and Amy Brower.
We are from the Newborn Screening Translational Research Network (also known NBSTRN). Our work is supported by one of the institutes at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda Maryland called the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (also known as NICHD). Dr. Chan and I are from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (also known as ACMG) and ACMG leads the NBSTRN. Screening babies saves lives every day, and research advances newborn screening by developing new technologies to screen, diagnose and treat. NBSTRN helps accelerate research by creating tools, resources and expertise for researchers, doctors, families, patients and advocates.
To learn how you can help advance newborn research, advocate for rare disease screening and treatment, and learn about important discoveries, become a member of the Newborn Screening Translational Research Network by visiting our website at www.nbstrn.org.

Advances in gene and cell therapies are enabling researchers, clinicians, families, and regulators to work together in incredible new ways to treat previously untreatable conditions. Listen to Christina Mayer share her efforts to advance policies that help to realize a future where gene and cell therapies are available to all individuals for all diseases. Christina is currently the Senior Manager of Government Affairs at the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She works with federal government agencies and decision-makers to impact key components of gene and cell therapies like NIH research funding, genetic testing and screening, payment policy and patient access to approved therapies. She also contributes to the Society’s work on other policy priorities, such as regulatory oversight and the responsible use of new genetic technologies. Christina has a Master of Public Administration from the University of Nebraska-Omaha. Listen with us as we imagine a future where the availability and equitable use of gene and cell therapies helps to realize the promise of a healthy future for all.
