About the SLEEP SCIENCE journal

The Sleep Science Journal, published online every three months, is the official journal of the Brazilian Association of Sleep (ABS) and the Federation of Latin American Sleep Societies (FLASS). The journal publishes scientific studies related to chronobiology, sleep, and associated areas.

Until recently, few researchers in Brazil dedicated their interests to the study of sleep. Among the most prominent was Professor César Timo-Laria, who was responsible for the qualification of dozens of scholars working in this area. Around the same time, chronobiological tools that allowed a dramatic improvement in the field have become available. Thanks to the diligence of Brazilian pioneers who dedicated their efforts to the study of chronobiology and sleep, such areas have been consolidated and are now investigated by hundreds of talented researchers.

The Sleep Science Journal has emerged in response to the rapidly increasing number of sleep-related manuscripts; it aims to publish the results of national and international research, with focus on studies conducted in cooperation with Latin American research groups.
