Giliane Rochat

Giliane joined the SDSC in July 2026 as a Software Research & Development Engineer in the Infrastructure team, based in Lausanne.

‍Giliane's academic journey began in medicine at the University of Lausanne before she transitioned to a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from the University of Franche-Comté, followed by a joint Master's degree in Bioinformatics at the Universities of Bern and Fribourg. After graduating, she worked at the University Hospital of Zurich developing a bioimage analysis pipeline for a research project focused on improving neurodiagnostics. While she remains deeply interested in the health sciences, what motivates her most is to tackle real-world problems and develop practical tools and systems that have a positive impact, whether in healthcare or beyond.
