Food allergy prevention and anaphylaxis in babies

Jun 15 2021

Save

While early introduction of cooked egg and peanut helps prevent food allergies developing in most babies, some will still develop food allergy.

Dr Jennifer Koplin will present the research evidence, Dr Merryn Netting will provide practical tips on how to introduce possible allergy causing foods into babies and Dr Preeti Joshi will explain what signs and symptoms to look for and how to manage an allergic reaction.

The webinar facilitator is Assoc Prof Kirsten Perrett.
