Programme overview
This free webinar features two informative talks from dermatology experts at the forefront of eczema research and practice. We will explore the new systemic treatments for people with more severe eczema and how they work, including biologic and JAK-inhibitor medicines. We will also look at how research is helping us understand more about how systemic eczema treatments work and highlight a new research study called BEACON. This study will compare the effectiveness of different eczema treatments.
The National Eczema Society and St John’s DermAcademy are pleased to collaborate to bring you this free webinar. There will be time after the talks for you to ask questions of the speakers and panel.
