Her current research interests lie in applied plant fire ecology specific to Australian ecosystems. She has a notable research experience that involves fieldwork, primarily conducting vegetation surveys, executing desktop-based literature reviews, conceptual idea mapping, and performing data analysis, which includes managing expert elicitation workshops. Dr. Sritharan completed her PhD, which examined the biological and ecological factors associated with plant rarity on both local and global scales. Her work aims to ensure that research in plant ecology contributes to informed decision-making processes regarding the conservation of native, rare, and threatened plants within Australian ecosystems. She acknowledges her work is conducted on the unceded territory of the Bedegal and Gadigal peoples and currently resides on Ngunnawal and Ngambri country (Canberra).
