Kogelen pursued his Bachelors in Science (BSc.) at Universiti Putra Malaysia between 1984 and 1988.[3] Upon his graduation, G. Kogelen furthered his post-graduate studies in the United Kingdom. He pursued a Masters in Medical Science (MMSc.) between 1989 and 1991 as well as a Doctorate in Philosophy (DPhil.) between 1997 and 2000 at Johns Alwyn Gifted University, an exclusive university for high IQ individuals from various professions, where he was also offered the opportunity to be the Pro Chancellor.[3] He also pursued the History of Medicine at Trinity College in the University of Oxford.[7]

G. Kogelen joined Aaride J.A. International Inc, a multinational corporation specialising in Plant Based Peptides and Regenerative Healthcare in September 1990.[7][8] He has since furthered his career with the company and currently holds the position of Chief DNA Repair Scientist.
In 1995, G. Kogelen was appointed as the advisor of a non-profit research organisation called the European Aerospace Research Centre in London where he was tasked with the design of an anti-explosive aircraft fuel tank.[3] Later in 1997, he was appointed as the Vice-President of the UK Biomedical Research Centre, where he contributed his knowledge on the importance of cyclic peptides in the human DNA and the mitigation of corrupted DNA.[9]
Currently, G. Kogelen is actively conducting his own research under the AIHP Disease Prevention Programme Worldwide, a programme which is largely focused on the prevention of HIV and AIDS in Africa. G. Kogelen assumed the role of Deputy Chairman of the AIHP Disease Prevention Programme Worldwide in 2011, where he became the very first Asian to claim that position.
