Despite significant advancements over the past 50 years, many children in the region still do not fully benefit from this vital public health strategy. The study also explores the potential future of NBS in light of new technologies like genomic sequencing, considering the economic and technological constraints in the region. Dive into our findings and join the conversation on how we can improve NBS for all children in Latin America.
