Specialized doctors worldwide

Who conducts research into coronary heart disease? Everyone listed here comes from a public register: as a principal investigator of a study at ClinicalTrials.gov, or as a last author of publications in PubMed. These are two different things, so we list them in two separate lists side by side instead of combining them into one figure.

Where these doctors work
Click or hover over a dot to see who works there. 24 of the 69 doctors are shown on the map — we only place those who work at an institute 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.
