Howraman Meteran

Howraman Meteran serves as a Lecturer in the Department of Immunology and Microbiology at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences (SUND). Based at Blegdamsvej 3B in Copenhagen, Meteran maintains an active research profile with 32 publications primarily focused on respiratory immunology and digital health.

Research interests center on allergic diseases epidemiology, COPD pathogenesis, and digital health misinformation. Recent work analyzes YouTube content quality for chronic rhinosinusitis, ChatGPT's reliability in asthma information, and nationwide Danish studies on corticosteroid use patterns. Their twin study research examines genetic versus environmental contributions to chronic bronchitis.

Current publications (2024-2025) reveal strong collaborative networks with Danish researchers including V. Backer and S.F. Thomsen, evidenced by frequent co-authorship in journals like Clinical Reviews in Allergy and Immunology and Lung. Notable trends include methodological rigor in systematic reviews and innovative approaches to evaluating online health information ecosystems.

Meteran's scientific contributions demonstrate particular strength in:

• Nationwide registry-based epidemiological studies
• Analysis of social media health content quality
• Genetic susceptibility investigations using twin cohorts
• Type 2 inflammation disease burden assessments

Active grant-funded projects appear focused on digital health literacy interventions and longitudinal tracking of respiratory disease management in Danish populations, with emerging work examining mental health comorbidities in allergic conditions.
