Dr. Mevlüt Karataş earned his Bachelor’s Degree from Istanbul University, Cerrahpasa School of Medicine (1994-2001). He specialized in medicine at Istanbul Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training and Research Hospital (2003-2009), with a thesis on tuberculosis. In 2007, he was a Research Fellow at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, working with Prof. Dr. Richard Light on pleural diseases.
Professional Background 🏥
Dr. Karataş has served as a Specialist Physician at Ahi Evren Chest Cardiovascular Surgery Training and Research Hospital (2009-2011), Kanuni Training and Research Hospital (2011-2014), and Atatürk Chest Diseases and Surgery Training and Research Hospital (2017-2024).
Certificate 📜
Dr. Karataş received the ILO International Pneumoconiosis Radiographs Classification Training Certificate in 2018, enhancing his expertise in evaluating pneumoconiosis cases.
Research Focus
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mevlüt Karataş’s research primarily focuses on pulmonary and respiratory health, particularly in the context of occupational and environmental exposures. His work includes studying allergenic pollen in Trabzon, assessing oxidative stress markers in workers, and evaluating the impact of obstructive sleep apnea on ocular health. He has also investigated the effectiveness of chest CT in COVID-19 triage and explored the progression of silicosis among ceramic workers. His research spans antibiotic resistance in respiratory pathogens and endobronchial management of airway obstructions, reflecting a broad interest in respiratory diseases and their management. 🌿🫁🦠
