The public is familiar with the well-organized “day science” image of bench-working scientists, but they rarely know the true stories and creativity behind published tested hypotheses. Itai Yanai and Martin Lercher discuss the exciting and significant parts of scientific research that occur behind the scenes, called “night science”, in a new collection of Editorials published in Genome Biology. The authors welcome all feedback and any comments on this series by the reader.
