Scattered experiences become structured health data
Understandable for patients, usable for the care team and valuable for research in the long run. The first concrete benefit is a clean doctor's report from your own history.
Born from personal experience
My name is Niclas Hennrich, I'm 32, and I live with a glioma myself — an astrocytoma (IDH-mutant, WHO grade 2). GlioBridge grew directly out of my own daily life with this diagnosis.
I simply lacked an app to keep my data in one place — without drowning in paperwork. After a diagnosis an enormous amount piles up: reports, lab values, appointments, notes. And at the GP, the neurologist, in Heidelberg, I gathered everything from scratch every single time.
That's exactly what I wanted to get rid of. With GlioBridge I keep everything in one place and generate a PDF report at the touch of a button — so I have everything ready for any appointment. Upload, done.
It started as a fun project. By now I want to share it with everyone who is affected too. Because I'm convinced: paperwork should take up the least of your attention — what counts is life and its good moments.
That's why GlioBridge pushes the paperwork into the background: everything in one place instead of constantly digging out documents. And you can, for example, see your lab values over time — shown factually and ready to discuss calmly with your care team.
The GlioBridge journey
The beginning
Born from personal experience
After his own diagnosis the paperwork piles up: reports, lab values, appointments, notes — scattered across folders, photos and apps. The idea: everything in one place.

First version live
gliobridge.de goes online: personal vault, lab PDF import, check-ins, seizure documentation and the PDF doctor report — free to use.
Today
Active development
New building blocks keep landing: lab trends, a trial radar (information only, no eligibility claims), controlled sharing with relatives, a knowledge base.
Next
Expert review & advisory board
Medical knowledge content is reviewed by clinicians before publication; a patient board and later an ethics/expert advisory board are part of the plan.
Our principles
Health data is among the most sensitive information there is. That's why privacy isn't an add-on for us but a foundation — built in from the start.
Patient first
You own and control your data.
Documentation, not diagnosis
We document and explain — we make no medical assessment.
Consent by design
No one sees your data without your clear, revocable consent.
Data minimisation
We collect only what is truly needed.
Hosting in Germany
Your data is hosted in Germany and protected by strict EU data-protection law (GDPR, Art. 9).
No data selling
We never sell or monetise your data. Transmission is encrypted.
Our mission
GlioBridge aims to help those affected keep an overview of their history and walk into every appointment well prepared — without making any medical assessment.
What GlioBridge is not
Not a medical device, not a diagnosis or treatment tool, not a substitute for medical advice. GlioBridge makes no risk statements and gives no treatment recommendations.
Transparency
GlioBridge is in active development. A patient advisory board and, later, an ethics/expert board are part of the project.
