Gastaut
In Europe, the discoveries by H. Gastaut and colleagues of the presence of apnea during sleep in a subgroup of Pickwickian patients (1965) led to a flurry of investigations of the control exercised by the sleeping brain on the bodys vital functions. This type of work eventually led to the new discipline of sleep medicine.
