An emerging market promotes embryo selection for behavioural traits including IQ, but the response of the social and behavioural genetic research community remains muted. We call for unified best prac...
If your research involves behavioural genetics, check out this Comment! Recommendations include -
🛡️Assess risks & build in safeguards from the very beginning
💬Engage with participants and communities openly, early & often
I'd love to see these efforts documented in Methods sections more often
A new series of 'How to' Comment is now launched! It provides guidance & practical recommendations for topics of broad interest to our readership. Read our editorial about it:
🚨 New piece in @nathumbehav.nature.com:
We show that socioeconomic gaps in childcare access across the OECD are not mainly about lower demand. Many disadvantaged families want childcare but face barriers such as scarcity, costs, and complex procedures.

✍️🎓Will AI detectors change how we write?
Bo Hu discusses potential impacts on academic writing in this World View for @nathumbehav.nature.com - www.nature.com/articles/s41... (also: rdcu.be/e6yzR)
In a commentary published today in Nature Human Behavior, we argue that regulating vaping needs pragmatic, evidence-based policy.

Collective knowledge is a human strength. To benefit from the wisdom of experience, we launch a Series of Comments in a dedicated ‘How to’ style. These ‘How to’ Comments provide brief advice and practical recommendations to researchers across the wide spectrum of disciplines covered by the journal.
Writing produced using artificial intelligence is becoming more common in academia, which has prompted institutions to look for ways to detect it. Bo Hu warns that an overreliance on fixed linguistic ...
Vaping regulation is a global challenge. We discuss evidence on health risks, smoking impacts and policy goals, and advocate for pragmatic, proportionate regulation that reduces smoking harms while mi...
Our paper is out in Nature Human Behaviour!
@rsenninger.bsky.social and I asked a simple, underexplored, question: when governments write policy documents, whose knowledge do they actually cite?
