Welcome to The Minnesota Cystic Fibrosis Center!

 The Minnesota CF Center Newborn Screening Program

As you may already know, the Minnesota Department of Health recently added cystic fibrosis (CF) to the list of disorders tested for in its newborn screening program. We are proud to have been involved in the effort to have CF added to newborn screening. We believe there is already strong and compelling evidence that demonstrates the great benefit that children with CF and their families get from early diagnosis and treatment.  More information on the CF Center Newborn Screening Program
