Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) and Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) are conditions being included in The Generation Study.
The Generation Study is an NHS research study which will explore the benefits, challenges and practicalities of sequencing and analysing newborns’ genomes. The study will sequence and analyse the genomes of 100,000 newborn babies in the UK.
There was a recent study update released last month: GS update
We hope the study will demonstrate the importance of screening for conditions at birth and results could support our newborn screening campaign for ALD: Screen Our Boys
