Jillian Simon is a senior post-doctoral scientist in Cardiovascular Medicine working alongside Professor Barbara Casadei.

Jillian has also been selected by the American Heart Association as one of the finalists for the Melvin L. Marcus Early Career Award in Cardiovascular Medicine, which will be presented later this month.
