I lecture in the Department of Genetics at the University of Pretoria, although my primary responsibility is research and research supervision. I am the primary supervisor of two PhD students and an MSc candidate in addition to performing my own research in the transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of wood formation. I also teach undergraduate classes, among them third year genetics courses. I'm happily married to my husband, Hon. Marius Redelinghuys, and live in Centurion with two spoilt Dachshunds!
