Hasselblatt is the son of the Lutheran pastor Gunnar Hasselblatt . He grew up in Lower Saxony ( Gladebeck ), Ethiopia , where his father was a lecturer at the theological seminary of the Mekane Yesus Church from 1969 to 1975, and Berlin. After graduating from high school in 1979, he studied physics at the TU Berlin (intermediate diploma 1981) and mathematics at the University of Maryland (master’s degree 1984). In 1989 he received his PhD at Caltech with Anatole Katok . He was then assistant professor, from 1996 associate professor and from 2002 professor at Tufts University . He has also been at the Center for Dynamical Systems at Pennsylvania State University since 1998 . He was visiting researcher at IHES (1990), ETH Zurich , IRMA in Strasbourg , MSRI and the University of Göttingen .
