Many of the earliest studies with the Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) were performed in Stanford Summer Sleep Lab in the Lambda Nu building on the Stanford campus. These studies included college students, patients with sleep disorders, and children and adolescents. The studies in children and teens are listed under the Stanford Sleep Camp section. This research was funded in large part by the Spencer Foundation and NIMH.
