Simon Milette, Ph.D., is a Postdoctoral Associate at Yale School of Medicine and Yale Cancer Center. He received his B.Sc. (2016), M.Sc. (2018), and Ph.D. (2024) from McGill University in Montreal, Canada. Under the supervision of Dr. Daniela Quail and Dr. Jonathan Spicer, his doctoral work explored the circadian regulation of neutrophil functions during lung cancer progression and metastasis.

In 2024, Dr. Milette joined the lab of Dr. Goran Micevic, Assistant Professor of Dermatology at Yale School of Medicine. In collaboration with Dr. Richard Flavell's and Dr. Marcus Bosenberg's groups, his current research aims to spatially and temporally resolve neutrophil epigenetic states in the context of cutaneous melanoma, with the long-term objective to develop novel strategies to improve anti-tumor immune memory.
