Wynette Redington

Wynette (BSc, MSc, PhD, BA) has been a staff member at the MSSI (now part of the Bernal Institute) since 2004.  She has a BSc in Materials and Production Engineering (NIHE), has worked in industry and lectured in Materials Science as part of the Engineering Degree at GMIT for two years.

Her MSc (1996) and PhD (2003) from the University of Limerick were in high temperature ceramics, developing a 3D phase diagram visualisation system in M-Si-Al-O-N systems.

Since joining MSSI/Bernal she has worked in different roles initially in X-Ray diffraction and thermal analysis and as safety officer.  The number and range of instruments in both suites has grown and she is currently responsible for XRD and Thermal Analysis.  These are both busy units with samples from internal and external researchers as well as commercial samples.
