Specialized doctors worldwide

Who conducts research into alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency? Everyone here comes from a public registry: as principal investigator of a study at ClinicalTrials.gov, or as last author of publications in PubMed. Those are two different things, so we list them in two separate lists next to each other instead of merging them into one figure.

Where these doctors work
Click or point to a dot to see who works there. 19 of the 58 physicians are on the map — we only place those who work at an institution whose city we know, and do not guess for the rest.

This is not a referral and not a judgment on care. We know nothing about how these people treat, whether they accept patients, or how to reach them. We do not display contact details. If you want a second opinion or a referral, go through your own specialist.
