He then moved to the United States and conducted postdoctoral research at JILA under Deborah Jin, working on the creation of a fermionic condensate of ultracold atoms. Since 2005 Greiner has been a professor at Harvard University, continuing research on BECs and ultracold Fermi gases.
In 2011, he was named a MacArthur Fellow.
