   Extractions: Herbert Spencer Gasser was born in Platteville, Wisconsin, on July 5, 1888, the son of Herman Gasser end Jane Elisabeth Griswold. After attending the State Normal School he went on to the University of Wisconsin, where he graduated A.B. in 1910 and A.M. in 1911. Here he studied physiology under Dr. Erlanger , with whom he was later to have such a fruitful collaboration. He then went to the Johns Hopkins Medical School for his clinical studies, obtaining his M.D. in 1915. After a year in pharmacology at Wisconsin he went to Washington University (St. Louis), where he was associated with Dr. Erlanger, becoming Professor of Pharmacology in 1921. From 1923-1925 he was granted leave of absence to study in Europe, working with Profs. A. V. Hill , W. Straub and L. Lapicque and Sir Henry Dale . In 1931 he was appointed Professor of Physiology and Head of the Medical Department at Cornell University , New York City. From 1935 to 1953 he was Director of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research , being later a member emeritus of the Institute. When he was at Johns Hopkins Medical School, Dr. Gasser worked for a time on a problem concerning blood coagulation. His major work, however, dates from his collaboration with Prof. Erlanger and was concerned with the electrophysiology of the nerves. The first paper from him on the subject dealt with action currents in the phrenic nerve. Later, the newly perfected low - voltage cathode - ray oscillograph was utilized in the work. Soon it was possible to demonstrate that the complexity of the oscillograph results was due to the different conductivity rates of different groups of nerve fibres. The work led to advances in our knowledge of the mechanism of pain and of reflex action and has inspired a large school of neurophysiologists.

   Extractions: (b. July 5, 1888, Platteville, Wis., U.S.d. May 11, 1963, New York, N.Y.), American physiologist, corecipient (with Joseph Erlanger ) of the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1944 for fundamental discoveries concerning the functions of different kinds of nerve fibres. At Washington University, St. Louis, Mo. (1916-31), where he was professor of pharmacology, Gasser collaborated with Erlanger in studying the barely detectable electrical impulses carried by isolated mammalian nerve fibres. By 1924 they had succeeded in adapting the oscillograph to physiological research, enabling them to visualize amplified nerve impulses on a fluorescent screen. Using this device, they demonstrated that different nerve fibres exist for the transmission of specific kinds of impulses, such as those of pain, cold, or heat. Their work also made it possible to construct improved recording machines to diagnose brain and nervous disorders and to ascertain the success of treatments for these diseases. In 1931 Gasser was appointed professor of physiology at Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y., and four years later he succeeded Simon Flexner as director of the Rockefeller Institute, New York City (1935-53).

   Extractions: HERBERT GASSER WAS A major scientific figure. An outstanding physiologist, he was a pioneer in the field of neurophysiology. In addition, as Director of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research from 1935 until 1953, he exercised an important national and international influence on science. This long-overdue memoir has been written almost thirty years after his death. We both knew him at the Rockefeller Institute and have had access to extensive archival material. Though our information about his early years is limited, Gasser's autobiography (1964), written characteristically with great reserve and in the third person, contains much of interest. ORIGINS AND EARLY YEARS IN WISCONSIN Herbert Gasser was born in 1888 in Platteville, a small town in southwestern Wisconsin. His father, Herman, was an immigrant from the Tyrol, who, after working as a pharmacist, studied medicine and became a practicing physician. His mother, Jane Elizabeth Griswold Gasser, came from a family of early Connecticut settlers. The given names of their first child, Herbert Spencer, stemmed from his father's perusal of books by Wallace, Darwin, and Spencer after local newspapers attacked the concept of evolution. There were two younger siblings, a sister and a brother. Gasser recalled his youth in Platteville: ". . .excursions into the countryside, fishing in the summer and skating in winter. There were few distractions, no cinema or radio, and travel was by horse and buggy. Children had to find their own amusement." Reading was of great importance to him. He also built furniture, taking pleasure in benchwork. Fine craftsmanship remained a lifelong interest. Young Gasser had a simple box Kodak camera that he supplemented with much "improvised equipment." As he remembered: "This experience later turned out to be a good training for a physiologist."
