Can moisturizers help prevent eczema? If so: when, what and how should they be applied? Can probiotics help? If so: who should take them - mother or baby? These questions and more are answered by Helen Brough, pediatric allergist and head of service at Evelina London Children's Hospital (UK). As part of our recent research symposium, she explains what research is going on in eczema management and prevention and what is still needed to make prevention a reality.
