Sindhrani Dars completed her Bachelor of Podiatry with Honours from the University of South Australia in 2017. She is currently undertaking her PhD on a population-based investigation of podiatry service use following neurotoxic chemotherapy and podiatry management of Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN). Having already published four research articles in tier 1 journals, her research focus is on clinically meaningful outcomes.
She has also worked clinically, with a diverse experience in providing a range of services to patients of all age groups.
In her current role of Lecturer in Podiatry at the University of South Australia she teaches lowerlimb anatomy and biomechanics, and introduction to Podiatry theory and practice. She also provides supervision and mentoring in paediatrics clinics. Her aim is to help students become life long learners and equip themselves with necessary clinical and professional skills to become good clinicians.
