SLEEP MEDICINE

Published by Elsevier Science. ISSN: 1389-9457. Sleep Medicine is a new journal, published by Elsevier Science. Why a new journal in sleep? A need was felt to have a journal primarily focussing on the human aspects of sleep, integrating the various disciplines that are involved in sleep medicine: neurology, clinical neurophysiology, internal medicine (particularly pulmonology and cardiology), psychology, psychiatry, sleep technology, pediatrics, neurosurgery, otorhinolaryngology, and dentistry. The journal will publish the following types of articles: Reviews (also intended as a way to bridge the gap between basic sleep research and clinical relevance); Original Research Articles; Full-length articles; Brief communications; Controversies; Case reports; Letters to the Editor; Journal search and commentaries; Book reviews; Meeting announcements; Listing of relevant organisations plus web sites. Sleep Medicine aims to be a journal no one involved in clinical sleep medicine can do without. The Editor-in-Chief, Sudhansu Chokroverty, a well-known expert in the field, Editor of the bestselling book Sleep Disorders Medicine (Butterworth-Heinemann) together with Elsevier Science, is dedicated to creating an excellent environment for the publication of your papers.
