Vitiligo Road Map – A Global Picture of Vitiligo Research
The interactive map below shows the various centers of vitiligo research around the world. To the best of our knowledge, this road map is the first of its kind.
The goal of the road map is to help individuals with vitiligo understand what is being done by various investigators across the globe, many of whom have been funded by the NVF. In addition, we hope the road map will promote collaborative interactions between scientists and physicians who are working on treatments and a cure for this disease.
Here are the names of the facilities around the world which are working on finding a cure for vitiligo.
