About
Dr. Gerard Celia is a reproductive scientist who serves as Executive Lab Director at Pacific Fertility Center Los Angeles, where he oversees the IVF laboratory rather than treating patients as a physician. He holds a B.S. in animal science from the University of Connecticut and a PhD in molecular physiology and biophysics from the University of Vermont College of Medicine, where his graduate research examined implantation and maternal adaptation to pregnancy; he later completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Vermont's obstetrics and gynecology department and, in 2023, an MBA from William & Mary's Mason School of Business. He is certified by the American Association of Bioanalysts as a High Complexity Laboratory Director, Clinical Consultant and Technical Supervisor, and has taught at several universities, including training REI fellows.
