@DrDevora @TatYanes4 @theage @smh @AusGenomics @GCAustralasia @GCRConnect Unfortunately RCS does not screen for de novo variants (new genetic changes present in the child but not in the parents) and is also (at the moment) not easily accessible to all potential parents due to costs and other factors. It is our hope that genomic NBS would compliment RCS

@DrDevora @TatYanes4 @theage @smh @AusGenomics @GCAustralasia @GCRConnect Great question @DrDevora Prospective parents can be screened via Reproductive Carrier Screening. This will look to see if parents are carriers of any Autosomal Recessive or X-linked conditions that they may then pass on to prospective children (1/2)
