Patients with sleep-wake disorders are taken care of not only by specialists for such disorders but also by general physicians and specialists of different physical and mental disorders. In the recent years, the nature of sleep and sleep-wake disorders have been intensively studied by investiga­ tors belonging to different fields of science including medicine, biology, and psychology in many countries. It is very important for the progress of research that investigators work­ ing in the related fields in different countries meet together and exchange their findings and ideas.
