National Eczema Society is committed to supporting eczema researcher. NES plays a vital role in supporting researchers and scientists focused on eczema and related skin conditions. By providing research funding for innovative research projects, NES is committed to fostering advancements in understanding the underlying causes of eczema and exploring new treatment options.

Additionally, NES serves as a platform for researchers to share findings, collaborate and promote recruitment for studies. The society’s commitment to promoting evidence-based practices ensures that researchers can translate their findings into practical solutions for patients, ultimately improving the quality of care and outcomes for those living with eczema.

How we support researchers:

  •  Research Funding
  • Sitting on Steering Committees
  • Reviewing Patient-facing documents
  • Promoting patient recruitment
  • Sharing Research findings with the Eczema community

🤝 NIHR Non-Commercial Partner

We are proud to confirm that the National Eczema Society is now recognised as a National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Research Discovery Network (RDN) Non-commercial Partner.

This means:

  • Research studies funded by NES are eligible for consideration for NIHR Clinical Research Network (CRN) support.
  • Eligible studies may receive support through the NIHR CRN portfolio, including infrastructure, recruitment assistance, and delivery resources across the UK.

This partnership strengthens our ability to support high-quality eczema research with real-world impact.


NES’s EXEC Group – Patient Involvement and Lived Experience

Researchers are strongly encouraged to involve people with lived experience of eczema from the earliest stages of their project. NES’s Experts by Experience Committee (EXEC Group) can:

  • Contribute to priority-setting and study design
  • Review research materials and consent processes
  • Advise on public involvement, communication, and dissemination

To involve the EXEC Group or discuss collaboration, contact: research@eczema.org

At National Eczema Society, we are always eager to collaborate with researchers who share our commitment to advancing knowledge and improving outcomes for individuals living with eczema. If you are conducting research in this area and are interested in partnering with us, we would love to hear from you. Together, we can help drive forward impactful studies and innovations.
