Giovanni Battista Grassi’s zodiac sign is Aries. According to astrologers, the presence of Aries always marks the beginning of something energetic and turbulent. They are continuously looking for dynamic, speed and competition, always being the first in everything - from work to social gatherings. Thanks to its ruling planet Mars and the fact it belongs to the element of Fire (just like Leo and Sagittarius), Aries is one of the most active zodiac signs. It is in their nature to take action, sometimes before they think about it well.
Giovanni Battista Grassi was born in the Year of the Tiger. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Tiger are authoritative, self-possessed, have strong leadership qualities, are charming, ambitious, courageous, warm-hearted, highly seductive, moody, intense, and they’re ready to pounce at any time.

Remembered best for his work in the parasitology sub-field of malariology (the study of malaria), this Italian Zoologist and Doctor also studied the behavior, development, and life cycles of termites, eels, and honey bees. He was the 1896 recipient of the Darwin Medal.
After earning a medical degree from the University of Pavia, he worked at the Zoological and Oceanographic Stations in Naples, Italy, and went on to study at Germany's University of Heidelberg.
He taught zoology at the University of Catania and anatomy at the Sapienza University of Rome.
He was born in Rovellasca, Italy, to Costanza Mazzuchelli and Luigi Grassi.
Were it not for the influence of microbiologist Robert Koch, who favored Doctor and malaria researcher Ronald Ross for the prize, Grassi would have been at least a dual recipient of the 1902 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
