Specialized doctors worldwide

Who conducts research into drug-resistant tuberculosis? Everyone listed here comes from a public registry: either as principal investigator of a study at ClinicalTrials.gov, or as last author of publications in PubMed. These are two different things, so we list them in two separate lists side by side rather than combining them into a single figure.

Where these doctors work
Click or hover over a dot to see who works there. 11 of the 79 physicians are shown on the map — we only place those who work at an institution whose city we know, and we do not guess about 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.
