Cherie Kagan, Stephen J. Angello Professor in Electrical and Systems Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, is also the Director of the University's Nanofabrication facility. Her areas of work include the chemical and physical properties of molecular, supramolecular, and nanoscale assemblies and devices; intramolecular, intermolecular, and interfacial charge and excitonic transport and interactions for the application of molecular and nanoscale materials in transistors and memory devices, photovoltaic devices, and chemical and biological sensors. She is on the editorial board of American Chemical Society's journal "Nano Letters" and serves on the Materials Research Society's Board of Directors and the NSF advisory board for the US Summer School in Condensed Matter and Materials Physics.

Kagan earned both a B.S.E. in Materials Science and Engineering and a B.A. in Mathematics from the University of Pennsylvania in 1991. In 1996, she received her Ph.D. in Electronic Materials from MIT. Her thesis work focused on the self-assembly of close packed solids of semiconductor nanocrystals and the unique electronic and optical properties that arise from cooperative interactions between neighboring nanocrystals. Kagan was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Bell Laboratories, where she built a scanning confocal Raman microscope to study the mechanistics of hologram formation in multicomponent photopolymers. She subsequently joined IBM's T. J. Watson Research Center where she most recently managed the "Molecular Assemblies and Devices Group." She has been on the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania since 2007.
