Did you know that genomic sequencing can now screen newborns for hundreds of rare conditions right at birth? That looking too closely at our DNA might actually cause more anxiety than answers? And is there such a thing as knowing too much about your health before you've even taken your first steps?
Professor Ainsley Newson (University of Sydney) joins the podcast to discuss the complex ethics of genomic newborn screening programs. Ainsley shares some delightful anecdotes about her first impression of Sinead, and unpacks how looking at a baby's DNA differs from traditional biochemical tests, what it means to balance the "value of knowing" against screening-related harm, and why we need to prioritise solidarity over high-tech hype.
Remember people, be savvy!
