## Description

The Newborn Screening Reference Center (NSRC) is an integral part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) at the University of the Philippines Manila, established under the Newborn Screening Act of 2004 (RA 9288). The NSRC is dedicated to enhancing public health by facilitating early identification of congenital disorders among newborns, which can lead to severe health issues if untreated. Their primary service involves the Newborn Screening Program, where, shortly after birth, a few drops of blood from a baby's heel are collected and tested for over twenty-eight metabolic disorders.

The center plays a vital role in providing resources and technical assistance to healthcare professionals and policymakers, ensuring comprehensive screening is accessible to all Filipino newborns. Additionally, NSRC aims to maintain high standards in newborn screening through quality assurance practices, benefiting both families and health practitioners. By implementing early interventions based on screening results, NSRC helps prevent serious developmental issues and improve the overall health outcomes of infants across the nation.
