Charmaine Arderne
At the University of Johannesburg, my role as an Associate Professor is built upon a foundation of over 19 years in academia, characterized by a blend of innovative research and teaching. Specializing in X-ray crystallography, I leverage educational technology to enhance the learning experience for undergraduate and postgraduate students, guiding them through the complexities of structural chemistry.
My industry experience as an Analytical Chemist and Lab Manager informs my practical approach to curriculum design, enabling me to incorporate real-world applications into academic learning. My research team is committed to pushing the boundaries of material analysis, using sophisticated tools such as CrystalExplorer to advance the field of inorganic chemistry and foster a deeper understanding among our students.
