This project aims to assess outcomes in a statewide screening cohort by examining conditions genetically linked to intellectual disability. It seeks to determine how these conditions can be identified as part of the comprehensive Victorian newborn screening program. It will assess how early detection through screening impacts long-term outcomes across the lifespan.
