About

Dr. Divay Chandra is a leading pulmonary researcher whose work focuses on the health impacts of electronic cigarettes and inhaled toxins. His key research areas include aerosol particle dynamics, lung function assessment, and the effects of flavoring agents in vaping products. In his highly cited 2023 study, Dr. Chandra demonstrated that menthol flavoring in e-cigarettes is associated with increased inhaled micro and sub-micron particles and worse lung function in combustion cigarette smokers. This landmark paper, with 17 citations, provided critical evidence that popular flavorings are not harmless additives but may exacerbate respiratory harm. Dr. Chandra’s research bridges the gap between basic aerosol science and clinical pulmonary outcomes, offering vital insights for public health policy. His work is particularly notable for its direct relevance to the ongoing global debate over flavored e-cigarette regulation, making him an influential voice in respiratory toxicology and harm reduction.
