Supporting the Developmental Needs of Children After Newborn Genomic Sequencing
SERVICE is a research study funded by the National Institutes of Health.
We are a collaboration with four newborn sequencing studies located across the U.S.:
Our goal is to understand the experience of families with early intervention services for their child after whole genome sequencing.
What is early intervention?
- Developmental services like physical, occupational or speech therapy, and care coordination, often delivered at home
- For infants and toddlers under age 3
