Zhu Ling (Chinese: 朱令; pinyin: Zhū Lìng, 24 April 1973 – 22 December 2023) is best known as the victim of an unsolved 1995 thallium poisoning case in Beijing, China. Her symptoms were posted to the Internet via a Usenet newsgroup by her friend from Peking University, Bei Zhicheng, and were subsequently proven to be caused by thallium poisoning. Her case was then reviewed by physicians in many different countries who examined her symptoms and made suggestions as to diagnoses and treatment. This effort was recognized as the first large-scale tele-medicine trial. Her life was ultimately saved, but she suffered serious neurological damage and permanent physical impairment.
