Abstract
- This collection of works builds upon previous scholarship on biosociality and education. The timely contributions in this Special Issue are international in focus and explore the growing interface between the biosocial sciences and education. The issue begins with papers that are more applied in nature and ends on a conceptual note, leaving the reader with a sense of both the positive and negative possibilities. Over the course of the Special Issue, the reader will get an appreciation for how epigenetics, behavioral genetics and social genomics, sensing technologies, and neuroscience are impacting upon education. This collection stresses that careful ethical consideration needs to be given to the application of the biosocial sciences in education.
