After studying history, philosophy and political science at the Free University of Berlin, he was a PhD student in the Max Planck Society's research program "History of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society under National Socialism". He received his doctorate from the University of Bremen in 2005 for his thesis Natürliche Ordnungen und politische Allianzen. Biologische und biochemische Forschung an Kaiser-Wilhelm-Instituten 1933-1945. Between 2004 and 2010, he was a postdoctoral fellow and research associate at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin as part of the project A Cultural History of Heredity. From 2011 to 2016, he led a research project funded by the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in Berlin on the history of the medical-biological research institutes in Berlin-Buch.

Bernd Gausemeier has conducted research on the history of eugenics, heredity research and medical statistics in the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as on various areas of biosciences and experimental medicine in the 20th century. His current interests focus in particular on the automation of laboratory and clinical practice and the changes in the organization of work in large-scale biomedical research in the late 20th century.
