Herbert Henri Jasper dedicated his life to studies of the brain in relation to the mind and behavior. He pioneered the application of the electroencephalogram (EEG) for the study of the electrical activity of the brain and used this technique in studies of consciousness, learning and particularly the examination of epileptic discharge. He utilized microelectrode recordings from single brain cells and combined this technique with microchemical analyses to study cortical and sub-cortical activity. He added substantially to our understanding of brainstem and thalamic reticular formations in conditions of consciousness and in relation to petit-mal epilepsy. His work with Wilder Penfield and associates over a quarter century elucidated the mechanisms of epilepsy and added to our understanding of the functional anatomy of the human brain. An enthusiastic and able organizer, Herbert Jasper was responsible for many international conferences on brain science and worked tirelessly to develop international collaboration among investigators of the nervous system, being one of the founders of the International Brain Research Organization and the Society for Neuroscience. His prodigious contributions in basic and clinical research will be recognized by the world community of brain science for years to come.
赫伯特·亨利·贾斯珀一生致力于研究大脑与心理及行为的关系。他开创了将脑电图（EEG）应用于大脑电活动研究的先河，并将这项技术用于意识、学习研究，尤其是癫痫放电检查。他利用对单个脑细胞的微电极记录，并将这项技术与微化学分析相结合，以研究皮层和皮层下活动。他极大地增进了我们对意识状态下以及与失神癫痫相关的脑干和丘脑网状结构的理解。他与怀尔德·彭菲尔德及其同事长达二十五年多的合作阐明了癫痫的机制，并增进了我们对人类大脑功能解剖学的理解。作为一位热情且能干的组织者，赫伯特·贾斯珀负责组织了许多关于脑科学的国际会议，并不知疲倦地致力于发展神经系统研究人员之间的国际合作，他是国际脑研究组织和神经科学学会的创始人之一。他在基础研究和临床研究方面做出的巨大贡献在未来多年将被脑科学界所认可。
