In November 1985 Thomas Koppe took then a study of dentistry at the University of Greifswald, which he in 1985 with the state examination and approval as a dentist graduated. In the same year he presented the work on the biomorphosis of the maxillo-mandibular apparatus in the miniature pig Mini-Lewe , which had been prepared jointly with Bettina Kraft and Kai-Uwe Schumacher, to the University of Greifswald for recognition as a PhD  A. The dissertation was awarded the university prize. In the following September Koppe took up further training as a specialist dentist for anatomy, at the Institute for Anatomy of the then Wilhelm Pieck University of Rostock (today's University of Rostock ), under the direction of Kai-Uwe Schumacher's father, Professor Gert-Horst Schumacher , which he finished in 1990. During this period, in February 1990, he submitted the post- doctoral thesis, again in collaboration with Kai-Uwe Schumacher, to the University of Rostock: Comparative anatomical studies on the functional morphology of the paranasal sinuses in humans and the pongids . A quantitative study based on computed tomography adopted on December 19, 1990 by the Senate of the Scientific Council. At the same time he was awarded the Facultas docendi by the University of Rostock .

From 1985 to 1992 Koppe worked as a research assistant at the Institute for Anatomy of the University of Rostock, from there he moved as an assistant professor to the Department of Anatomy Okayama University School of Dentistry in Japan, before becoming senior assistant at the Institute for Anatomy in 1998 Ernst Moritz Arndt University of Greifswald. As a regular professor, his field of work and research includes the functional morphology of the mammalian chewing apparatus and the paranasal sinuses of primates.
