Henrik Bringmann

Henrik Bringmann is a Professor at Technische Universität Dresden leading the Bringmann Lab, which investigates sleep regulation and its biological functions using Caenorhabditis elegans and mouse models. The lab focuses on molecular mechanisms of sleep-related health benefits and developing tools for long-term experimental observation.

• Developed agarose hydrogel microcompartments for imaging sleep behavior
• Created Codon Adapter web tool for gene expression control
• Engineered non-Mendelian inheritance systems in worms
• Designed OptoGenBox for optogenetic stimulation protocols

Research findings aim to address sleep disorders and develop regenerative therapies. The lab includes 10+ active researchers with positions ranging from Predoc to Postdoc.
