Ingolf Bernhardt studierte Physik an der Lomonossow-Universität in Moskau und spezialisierte sich auf dem Gebiet der Biophysik. Nach erfolgreichem Abschluss arbeitete er im Institut für Biophysik an der Humboldt-Universität in Berlin. Der Promotion 1981 folgte 1986 die Habilitation. Sein wissenschaftliches Interesse galt der Erforschung der roten Blutzelle, insbesondere dem Ionentransport durch die Membran dieser Zelle.Mehrere Jahre leitete Ingolf Bernhardt das Isotopenlabor seines Instituts und hielt Vorlesungen zur Membranbiophysik sowie Strahlenbiophysik. Als Privatdozent wechselte er...

Ingolf Bernhardt grew up in the GDR. After graduating from high school, he studied physics at the Lomonosov University in Moscow, specialised in the field of biophysics and, after successfully completing his studies, began his professional career in the same subject at the Humboldt University in Berlin. As early as the 1980s, as well as in the following decades, numerous trips, often based on personal invitations, took him to both Eastern and Western countries. Particularly intensive connections developed with Oxford University in the UK. In 2000, Ingolf Bernhardt moved to Saarland...

After successfully completing his studies, he began his professional career in the Institute of Biophysics at the Humboldt University in Berlin. He defended his Ph.D. in 1981 and his D.Sc. (habilitation) in 1986. The main focus of his research was the investigation of red blood cells, in particular the ion transport across the membrane of these cells.Ingolf Bernhardt was head of the isotope laboratory in the Institute of Biophysics for several years and gave lectures in membrane...
