Join us for an online learning session,  connecting clinical evidence with real-world newborn skin care. Together we will explore infant skin development, common concerns, diapering routines, and practical, evidence-based guidance you can share with clients. The session features Dr. Andrew Carr, a clinical scientist who leads multi-national research on infant skin health, and Dr. Marty O. Visscher, PhD, Director of the Skin Sciences Program at Cincinnati Children’s, whose work focuses on the newborn skin barrier and early skin maturation.
