Her prior positions include research appointments at
Dartmouth and at the University of California, Berkeley. Millan served on the NRC Committee on the role and scope of mission-enabling activities in NASA's space and earth science missions and on the panel on solar wind-magnetosphere interactions

launch, Julianna
Scheiman, made efforts to re-land the first stage booster and has worked for the SES-9 launch. Scheiman worked with Milan on the very early BARREL prototype payloads and conducted her senior thesis on the BARREL piggyback test flight.
150:. In 2011, Millan received the Dartmouth Dean of the Faculty award for outstanding mentoring and advising and for overall career distinction. In 1995, Millan received the Department of Astronomy's Dorthea Klumpke Roberts award.
