Specialized doctors worldwide

Who is conducting research on melanoma (metastatic)? Everyone listed here comes from a public registry: as principal investigator of a study on 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. 32 of the 76 physicians are shown on the map — we only include those who work at an institute where we know the city, 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.
