Dr Surinder Singh has become the first turbaned person, to win the PIVE award from University of Sydney.


A vet by profession, Dr Singh has been teaching and mentoring students for many years now, owing to his vast repository of experience - he has previously worked for RSPCA, and various government departments like DIBP. He is one of only two people in NSW, chosen for the award this year.

 Here is a brief interview in which Dr Singh talks about this award, his current line of work which takes a very close look at animal welfare, and also about his identity as a Sikh Australian.
