Alexander A. Borbély (born 1939 in Budapest) is a Hungarian-Swiss pharmacologist known for his sleep research.. Borbély proposed the two-process model of sleep regulation in 1982 which postulates there are two complementary processes (S and C, which stands for Sleep and Circadian, respectively) which together account for one's sleep schedule. [1]
In 1993, a different model called the opponent process model [98] was proposed. This model explained that these two processes opposed each other to produce sleep, as against Borbely's model. According to this model, the SCN, which is involved in the circadian rhythm, enhances wakefulness and opposes the homeostatic rhythm.
Emotions play a key role in overall mental health, [1] and sleep plays a crucial role in maintaining the optimal homeostasis of emotional functioning. [2] [3] Deficient sleep, both in the form of sleep deprivation and restriction, adversely impacts emotion generation, emotion regulation, and emotional expression. [4]

In the two process model of sleep, it has been proposed, that depression is characterized by a deficiency in the building up of process S. [27] Therefore, sleep deprivation might increase process S in the beginning, but a relapse occurs, when sleep deprivations isn't applied anymore and process S returns to a low level. [27]
