Newborn Screening in the United States: A Vision for Sustaining and Advancing Excellence
Paperback / softback. New. <p>For over 60 years public health newborn screening programs have served families in the United States by identifying babies at risk of serious but treatable conditions and connecting them to clinical care. Today more than 98% of infants receive dried blood spot screening which entails collecting a few drops of blood during the first days of life applying them to a paper card and sending the card to a lab to be tested for markers of specific health conditions like congenital hypothyroidism cystic fibrosis and sickle cell disease. The public health impacts of newborn screening are vast with over 7000 infants identified annually for timely interventions. Despite these achievements challenges in implementing newborn screening programs persist.</p> <p>In response to a congressional request the Office on Women's Health of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services asked the National Academies to convene an ad hoc committee of subject matter experts to examine the current landscape of newborn screening in the United States recommend options to strengthen this public health service and establish a vision for the future. Supplementary funding was provided by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to enable additional public engagement. The resulting report provides actionable recommendations for navigating the path ahead while preserving and enhancing what is already considered a valuable and effective public health achievement.</p> paperback

Social and Behavioral Sciences for National Security: Proceedings of a Summit
Paperback / softback. New. In the coming years complex domestic and international environments and challenges to national security will continue. Intelligence analysts and the intelligence community will need access to the appropriate tools and developing knowledge about threats to national security in order to provide the best information to policy makers. Research and knowledge from the social and behavioral sciences SBS can help inform the work of intelligence analysis; however in the past bringing important findings from research to bear on the day-to-day work of intelligence analysis has been difficult. In order to understand how knowledge from science can be directed and applied to help the intelligence community fulfill its critical responsibilities the National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine will undertake a 2-year survey of the social and behavioral sciences. To launch this discussion a summit designed to highlight cutting-edge research and identify future directions for research in a few areas of the social and behavioral sciences was held in October 2016. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the summit. paperback

Roundtable on Environmental Health Sciences, Research, and Medicine
Principles and Obstacles for Sharing Data from Environmental Health Research: Workshop Summary
Paperback / softback. New. On March 19 2014 the National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine held a workshop on the topic of the sharing of data from environmental health research. Experts in the field of environmental health agree that there are benefits to sharing research data but questions remain regarding how to effectively make these data available. The sharing of data derived from human subjects--making them both transparent and accessible to others--raises a host of ethical scientific and process questions that are not always present in other areas of science such as physics geology or chemistry. The workshop participants explored key concerns principles and obstacles to the responsible sharing of data used in support of environmental health research and policy making while focusing on protecting the privacy of human subjects and addressing the concerns of the research community. Principles and Obstacles for Sharing Data from Environmental Health Research summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop. paperback
