Hi there, I'm Géraldine Räuber.

I'm a physicist having completed my PhD as part of the Belle II collaboration. My research has taken me deep into the world of high-energy experiments, where I've worked with large datasets and complex analytical methods to study fundamental particles.

Along the way, I've developed strong programming skills and a passion for coding, which I apply to everything from data analysis to creating tools that (hopefully) solve everyday problems. Now, I'm currently a Software Developer, working with SAP technologies and programming in ABAP.

I enjoy taking on coding projects that challenge me to think critically and creatively, whether it's optimizing algorithms or exploring new applications of machine learning. I'm always looking for opportunities to learn and contribute to exciting new ideas. Feel free to take a look at my CV in English icon or in French icon.

When I'm not immersed in physics or coding, you can find me playing the flute, keeping my plants alive, or experimenting in the kitchen.

Got questions? Just hit me up at hi[at]syntaxerror.ch. Unless it's spam. Spam gets the silent treatment.

What's special today


  • Not all fruits and vegetables grow at the same time. For example, nectarines and lettuce & salad leaves are currently in season in Europe. More fruits and vegetables are listed in my project Fruits and veggies.
  • In Japan, the year is traditionally divided into 72 moments of season. The current Sekki is Shosho (tr. End of Heat) and the Kō is Kokumono sunawachi minoru (tr. Rice ripens). Check out the rest of the seasons in my blog post titled Haikus and seasons.

  • Have I ever said that I'm a plant lover? Not the kind of plant lover that would go in a plant shop and buy everything, but more the kind that would let the plants grow starting from seeds. It can be reduced to an input/process/output system. You have seeds. You put them in soil, ... Lemon Tree, October 3, 2024
  • My personal data analysis journey started with Pandas dataframes. Being easy to manipulate in Python code, it enables further data analysis while also allowing you to make adjustments should the data change over time. So when I heard about SQL (Structured Query Language), I ... SQLite, October 26, 2024
