The Michigan BioTrust for Health is an initiative to make leftover newborn screening samples more useful and available for medical or public health research.  After newborn screening is completed at the Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH) Laboratory, remaining dried blood spot samples are de-identified, labeled with a code and stored at the Michigan Neonatal Biobank for possible future research use.
