Henri Laborit and the inhibition of action.

Henri Laborit and the inhibition of action. Dialogues Clin Neurosci. 2014 Mar;16(1):113-7 Authors: Kunz E Abstract Henri Laborit was one of the founders of modern neuropsychopharmacology, having discovered, or participated in, the discovery of chlorpromazine, gamma-OH, clomethiazole, and minaprine. He also put forward a theory regarding the necessity of counteracting the negative consequences of defense mechanisms during anesthesia or behavioral inhibition. The scope of his work covers neurophysiology, pharmacology, psychiatry, and psychosomatics. His independence of spirit meant that most of his research was not done within university settings.
