"After completing his medical studies in 1874 he decided on a career in physiology. Foster advised him to work for a year under Carl Ludwig the great German physiologist whose introduction of the kymographic recording method was integral to the investigation of the heart. In Ludwig's well-equipped laboratory in Leipzig Gaskell studied the vasomotor control of the blood flow in the skeletal muscle arteries demonstrating that sensory nervous stimulation could cause arterial dilation. His continuing interest in the nature of the sympathetic control of cardiac and arterial function led to his definitive work on the anatomy and function of the efferent sympathetic nerves published in 1885 which served as the foundation for all future investigations in this area. His studies also proved the antagonistic cardiac effects of the autonomic nervous system especially the cardioinhibitory role of the vagus nerve and its control of the heartbeat."
