Webinar Replay: The Power of Knowing Early - Genomic Screening for Newborns

Date: Sunday, 12th October 2025 Speaker: Dr. Bani Jolly, Section Head (R&D, Genome Informatics) and Senior Scientist, Karkinos Healthcare

Every healthy beginning deserves a deeper look

Every year, thousands of babies are born appearing perfectly healthy - yet silently carry genetic conditions that may not show up until months or even years later. By the time symptoms appear, the crucial windows for early brain and body development may already have closed.

Genomic newborn screening has the power to change that story. With a single test at birth, families can uncover hidden risks early - opening doors to timely treatment, preventive care, and a healthier future.
