Tacit assumptions and beliefs influence our research designs and interpretation of the data. Sometimes we have to admit that commonly held beliefs about sleep are based on scant data or no data at all. The current issue of the Journal of Sleep Research contains papers covering a wide range of issues relevant to sleep medicine and basic sleep research. Some of these papers challenge assumptions and common beliefs, others provide new insights.
