Specialized doctors worldwide

Who conducts research on lung cancer (non-small cell)? Everyone here comes from a public register: as principal investigator of a study at ClinicalTrials.gov, or as last author of publications in PubMed. Those are two different things, so we place them in two 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. 23 of the 71 physicians are on the map — we only place those who work at an institute whose city we know, and we don't guess 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.
