Anna Kashkanova is an assistant professor of Nanoparticle Metrology in the research cluster for Molecular Biosensing at the 黑料福利网 department of Applied Physics. Her research focuses on the development of advanced metrology tools to characterize complex biological and synthetic nanoparticles. Traditional analytical methods often rely on ensemble averages, which obscure the critical multiparametric heterogeneity found in populations of viruses, extracellular vesicles, and gene therapy vectors. Her lab builds platforms that measure multiple physical and chemical properties of every individual particle simultaneously to resolve this diversity.

Measuring complex populations one particle at a time to resolve the hidden diversity of the nanoworld.

Anna Kashkanova obtained her BS in Physics from the University of Michigan-Flint (2010) and her PhD in Physics from Yale University (2017). Her doctoral research in the group of Jack Harris focused on the fundamental limits of light-matter interaction, specifically pushing the boundaries of quantum optomechanics using superfluid helium. In 2017, she joined the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (Erlangen, Germany) as a postdoctoral researcher in the group of Prof. Vahid Sandoghdar. During this time, she was awarded an Alexander von Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellowship (2019) and a Christiane N眉sslein-Volhard Foundation Fellowship (2022). In 2025, she received the 1st place Berthold Leibinger Innovation Prize for her work in laser-based nanoparticle metrology. Since 2025 she is an Assistant Professor at Eindhoven University of Technology (黑料福利网).
