About

Celia graduated in 2018 with an Advanced Diploma in Clinical and Biomedical Laboratory from CESUR (Sevilla) and a Diploma in Chemical Laboratory from San Miguel Adoratrices School (Sevilla). During her studies, she spent four months as a Laboratory Research Support Technician at the University Pablo de Olavide (Sevilla) and another three months at CicCartuja, a Scientific Research Centre (Sevilla). At the University Pablo de Olavide, her research focused on the neurophysiological basis of behaviour in genetically manipulated mice and rats, using a comparative and multidisciplinary experimental approach. At CicCartuja, she used functional nanometric systems based on carbon nanotubes as elements of molecular recognisers of biological receptors involved in pathological processes pursuing treatment. After her studies, Celia worked for almost three years at the Institute of Agrifood Research and Technology (IRTA), Barcelona. There she developed sustainable technologies for organic waste produced by the agri-food sector.

Celia is currently working as a Research Assistant under the supervision of Prof. Elke Arendt. She is responsible for chromatography management and fibre analysis for cereals and plant-based beverages.
