Multi-state Collaborative Projects
The National Birth Defects Prevention Network helps facilitate collaborative projects that utilize data from state birth defects registries. Abstracts of publications from the Network’s numerous collaborative projects are available below. Inquiries about collaborative projects should be directed to the state data committee.
