At fictional Princeton-Plainview Teaching Hospital in New Jersey, prickly genius Dr. Gregory House tackles baffling health mysteries like a medical Sherlock Holmes, while amusing himself by playing mind games with hospital administrator Dr. Lisa Cuddy and House's best friend, Dr. James Wilson, an oncologist. House's original team of young diagnosticians -- Drs. Eric Foreman, Allison Cameron and Robert Chase -- have graduated to other duties, replaced by House's new team: Drs. Lawrence Kutner, Chris Taub and a female doctor House has dubbed "Thirteen."
