Matthew Mille, PhD is a staff scientist in the Radiation Epidemiology Branch of the National Cancer Institute’s Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics. In this role he conducts original research in support of epidemiological studies on late health effects following radiotherapy. His research portfolio centers on computer simulations and metrology related to the delivery, detection, and dosimetry of ionizing radiation in support of important problems in radiation epidemiology, medical physics, and radiation protection. His research has touched on the need to optimize the radiation dose received by patients undergoing medical imaging exams or radiation treatment for cancer, as well as the need to detect and accurately quantify radioactivity inside the body resulting from planned nuclear medicine procedures or accidental contamination during a radiological emergency. Dr. Mille is a Past President of the Baltimore-Washington Chapter of the Health Physics Society and the Council on Ionizing Radiation Measurements and Standards. He has also served on the executive committees of the Biology and Medicine Division of the American Nuclear Society and the International Society of Radiation Epidemiology and Dosimetry. Matthew received a Ph.D. in nuclear engineering and science from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2013. He has authored over 30 peer-reviewed journal publications and 100+ invite talks, presentations, and abstracts on diverse topics. Dr. Mille received the Elda Anderson Award (2021) of the Health Physics Society and the Bernard Wheatly Award (2019) of The Society for Radiological Protection (UK) for the best paper published in the Journal of Radiological Protection.
