As a result of being a stigmatized social group, transgender people are victmis of violence and invisibility of their demands. Based on the preliminary perception that the scientific discourse has naturalized and localized the truth about gender in the body structures, we developed a research within the scope of an academic master degree whose objective was to characterize modes of visibility of trans people in Brazilian scientific production. The methodological strategy was to outline an overview of this production. The work consisted in searching for studies in SciELO CI, WoS and Scopus; in the analysis of authors, institutions, areas of knowledge and countries involved; and in the subject analysis. The corpus identified was formed from 293 studies. The results reveal a diversification in the areas of research and the need for adequate integral care, promotion of research, gender discussion in schools and care in naming stigmatized groups. The purpose of the article is to present this overview.
