Citizen Jury on Genomics in Newborn Screening

Mar 30, 2025

I was fortunate to attend a unique Citizen Jury on Genomics in Newborn Screening – an impressive example of everyday Australians engaging thoughtfully with complex issues. The facilitation was outstanding, and the jury should be proud of their considered deliberations. We look forward to sharing the final report and jury statement, which will help inform future public policy on genomics.

Thank you to Principal Investigators Sarah Norris and Stacy Carter, and to our HGSA partners Lauren Hunt and Professor Ronda Greaves, for the opportunity to be involved.
