Slavery and the Journal — Reckoning with History and Complicity
Wrestling with Social and Behavioral Genomics
In this consensus report by a diverse group of academics who conduct and/or are concerned about social and behavioral genomics (SBG) research, the authors recount the often‐ugly history of scientific attempts to understand the genetic contributions to human behaviors and social outcomes. They then describe what the current science—including genomewide association studies and polygenic indexes—can and cannot tell us, as well as its risks and poten…
A Moment or a Movement? The Pandemic, Political Upheaval, and Racial Reckoning

The authors argue that the sociopolitical constructs appropriate for monitoring health dis…
