The history of newborn screening will be outlined and there will be discussion on newborn screening as a public health mandate which is considerably influenced by parental and professional advocacy groups as well as industry; the clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, treatment options, and long-term management and counseling issues of the more frequently encountered inborn errors of energy metabolism and storage disorders; be able to develop a general approach to the use of the genetic laboratory; and understand the utility of biochemical analyses and enzymatic assays.
