Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) was not "discovered" by a single individual; rather, it was identified as a distinct phenomenon in the 1960s. Researchers began to recognize a pattern of unexplained infant deaths during sleep, leading to the establishment of the term SIDS in 1969. The condition has since been extensively studied by various scientists and medical professionals to understand its causes and risk factors.
