Anna is the recipient of the IUPAC Emerging Innovator Award in Analytical Chemistry for 2025 (you can read the official notice here). The award was given for her leadership of an interdisciplinary team of researchers exploring the structure-electronic structure relationship in inorganic solids with a goal of integrating such materials into opto-electronic devices.

This award is a reflection of the continuous, dedicated work of all group members to develop and apply techniques such as hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy creating impact across the broader chemical and physical sciences.

The Analytical Chemistry Division of the IUPAC presents two awards in the field of analytical chemistry each biennium. The second award in 2025, the IUPAC Analytical Chemistry Medal, recognises lifetime achievement and has been awarded to Graham Cooks, Henry B. Hass Distinguished Professor of Chemistry, Purdue University, USA in recognition of his lifetime achievements in the field of mass spectrometry. Congratulations!
