Shannon Routh

All Shannon has ever really wanted to do is work with animals. She attended Alamance Community College and received her Animal Care and Management Diploma. She never really thought that her passion for animals would lead her to work in research. She joined the ElMallah Lab to gain more formal research experience. She is responsible for animal breeding and monitoring mice daily in our Vivarium and GSRBII animal facility. She provides all the required technical support to enable the lab to function effectively and assists lab members in their projects when needed. When she is not working in the lab, Shannon likes to trail ride a horse named Jackson. She is a social volunteer that helps kids get ready for Special Olympics.
