Celina Copeland

Lab Manager, Cell & Developmental Biology


Celina Copeland is from Smyrna, TN and graduated from the University of Tennesse Knoxville with her Bachelor of Science in Animal Science. During her undergrad, she worked mainly with farm animals such as chickens, pigs, and cows, and even participated in agricultural research that investigated how light intensity and high stocking affected the well-being of broilers. She uses her knowledge of animal biology, behavior, and husbandry to her advantage as a lab manager. Most of her work in the DelGiorno lab consists of mouse work and managing multiple colonies, as well as administrative duties. In her free time, Celina loves to spend time with her family and play with her little dog, Tobi.
