While working at CERN, he realized that reggeon field theory can be viewed as a contact process in the
same universality class as directed percolation. After making this discovery, Grassberger turned his
attention to the studies of statistical physics, dynamical systems, sequential sampling algorithms, and
complex systems. His publications span a variety of topics including reaction-diffusion systems, cellular
automata, fractals, Ising model, Griffiths phases, self-organized criticality, and percolation.
He held long-term positions at the University of Wuppertal and at the Forschungszentrum Jülich
(Germany). Other positions that lasted between 2 years and 3 months were at CERN, at the Universities
of Kabul, Nice, Calgary, Rome and Utrecht, the Weizmann Institute, the Max Planck Institute for the
Physics of Complex Systems in Dresden, the Istituto nazionale di ottica in Florence, and at the Institute
for Advanced Studies in Basic Sciences in Zanjan, Iran.
