This meeting brought together over 100 collaborative partners from all of the Region 4 project clusters to participate in collaborative activities, with a special emphasis on planning for continuation. Participants received up-dates on activities and outcomes, highlights about what has changed in the region since the inception of Region 4 Genetics Collaborative and best practices information through plenary, panel and discussion sessions. Clusters and working groups met in breakout working sessions to review priorities and finalize activities to be completed during this grant year. Some of the working groups convened in additional evening and/or pre-meeting sessions to maximize the opportunity for working face-to-face. (For more information on the working sessions, please click on Newborn Screening by MS/MS; Clinical Diagnosis & Management; or Public Health Infrastructure.
