About me

Welcome!

Hey there! I’m Gabriel Rabanal Bolaños, a particle physicist with a deep interest in machine learning and data science. I recently completed my Ph.D. in Physics at Harvard University, where I did research on multiboson interactions at CERN using machine learning. Additionally, I contributed to the upgrade of the muon spectrometer of the ATLAS Experiment at CERN by working on detector commissioning and developing software for detector geometry.

My academic journey began with a B.Sc. in Physics from the National University of Engineering in Lima, Peru, my hometown. During my undergraduate studies, I gained valuable experience in nuclear physics at Peru’s nuclear reactor. Following this, I first traveled to the United States for an internship at Yale University, where I worked on neutrino physics.

I’m also passionate about languages and linguistics. I have expertise in phonetics, grammar, and writing systems across various language families. I’m fluent in Spanish, English, and French, and I have advanced knowledge of ancient languages, mainly Akkadian and Sumerian, but I like reading anything cuneiform. Furthermore, I’m particularly interested in the indigenous languages of the Americas, such as Quechua. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new languages and reading into historical linguistics. I am also working on several personal projects that blend my interests in data science and languages.
