Enrique Antonio Gil Ponce was born on September 16, 1985 in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Throughout his formative years, he attended schools in Honduras, Venezuela, and Bolivia, finally graduating high school from Academia Los Pinares in Tegucigalpa. In 2003, he moved to the United States to pursue a Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Milwaukee School of Engineering. In 2008, he moved to Germany to further pursue a Master of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering with a focus on medical electronics offered jointly by the University of Lübeck and the Lübeck University of Applied Sciences. His master thesis, hosted at Philips Research in Eindhoven, was his first introduction to the field of chronobiology under the supervision of Dr. Andre Barroso.
In 2011, he moved again to the Netherlands where he obtained a Marie Skłodowska-Curie research fellowship at Philips Research. Affiliated to the Neurobiology group at the University of Groningen, he began work as a PhD candidate in the topic of circadian phase estimation under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Domien Beersma (RUG) and Dr. Xavier Aubert (Philips). The results of this work are presented in this thesis. Within the Marie Skłodowska-Curie network, a collaboration was established with the Interdisciplinary Center of Sleep Medicine at the Charité University Hospital in Berlin, where he spent 6 months in 2014 as a Guest Researcher working with sleep onset insomnia patients under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Thomas Penzel.
