About Sean
Dr. Sean Lanting serves as a Lecturer and clinical supervisor in the Discipline of Podiatry, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Health and Medicine at the University of Newcastle, Australia, and holds the position of Honorary Lecturer in the School of Health Sciences, College of Health, Medicine and Wellbeing. He earned his Bachelor of Podiatry in 2011, Bachelor of Health Science (Honours Class 1) in 2012, and Doctor of Philosophy titled 'Vascular risk profiling and exercise therapy for diabetic foot complications' in 2017, all from the University of Newcastle. In recognition of his academic excellence, he received the Highest Mark award for Bachelor of Health Science (Honours) from the Faculty of Health and Medicine in 2013. Throughout his career at the University of Newcastle, Sean has been actively involved in teaching across various courses, including lower-limb anatomy, pharmacology, clinical practice, biomechanics, sports injuries and rehabilitation, and diabetes management. He has coordinated key podiatry programs such as Advanced foot anatomy and biomechanics, Diabetes and wound management, Introduction to podiatry clinical skills, and Musculoskeletal and sports podiatry. Additionally, he established cross-institutional partnerships with the University of Sydney and Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney.
Sean's research interests center on microvascular disease in diverse populations and the impacts of exercise therapies on chronic disease health measures. His fields of research include Podiatry (80%), Biomechanics (10%), and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health services (10%), with keywords encompassing Biomechanics, Diabetes, Microvascular function, and Peripheral Arterial Disease. He has contributed extensively to the literature through 28 journal articles and numerous conference outputs. Notable publications include 'The effect of exercise training on cutaneous microvascular reactivity: A systematic review and meta-analysis' (2017, Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport), 'The reliability of the ankle brachial index: A systematic review' (2019), 'Cutaneous microvascular reactivity in Charcot neuroarthropathy: a systematic review and meta-analysis' (2022, Journal of Foot and Ankle Research), 'The Efficacy of Exercise Training for Cutaneous Microvascular Reactivity in the Foot in People with Diabetes and Obesity: Secondary Analyses from a Randomized Controlled Trial' (2022, Journal of Clinical Medicine), and 'Social Determinants of Diabetes-Related Foot Ulcer Healing and Amputation in Australia: A Systematic Review' (2026, Journal of Foot and Ankle Research). These works have advanced understanding of non-invasive assessments and interventions for diabetes-related foot complications, influencing podiatry and diabetes management practices. Currently, he also holds a Lecturer position in Podiatry at Western Sydney University.
