About
A senior scientist, on your side of the table.
Václav Ranc is an analytical chemist with over 20 years in academic research, specialising in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), magneto-plasmonic nanomaterials, and the chemometric and machine-learning methods that turn spectra into validated results.
He has authored more than 85 peer-reviewed papers, is a named inventor on four granted patents, and has been principal investigator on multiple international research grants.
Ranc Analytics provides his expertise privately and independently to industry, startups, and investors, focusing on method development, defensible data pipelines, and independent technical assessment.
The practice is independent and hardware-agnostic. No employer or institution is named or represented here, and no institutional resources or IP are used. For an investor commissioning due diligence, that independence is the point; for a company, it means the judgement answers only to the science and to you.
If the problem is niche and senior, so is the help.
Method development, defensible pipelines, or an independent read on someone else's science — tell me which.
