Summary

This study tests whether it is practical and acceptable to screen newborns' entire genome for rare diseases that appear in early childhood. Researchers will offer the screening to parents of 5000 newborns in five French hospitals. The goal is to see how many families agree and whether results can be returned within 4 weeks, helping to decide if this approach could be used nationwide.
